Will this work with a 300w power supply?

My SFF PC is running off a 250W power supply so I guess if your CPU is not the power hungry type (mine is the low end dual-core 3M cacahe 2.7GHz type), 300W probably will be okay.

Absolutely no problem. However you do need to make sure that you have a motherboard that has this kind of pci-express slot/support though and if so your good to go just find out from the manufacturer if it does and if not then you know to ask what kind of card slot it does have and order one for that slot. I hope this helps you.

"It depends." Here's the long answer: Read the label on the side of your power supply about the total watts available on the combined legs of the output. Now add up the power used by all your components--use google to find that information, or check the manuals. If the total is less than the legs, it is certainly worth trying.This is the short answer: If this 300-w. PSU is one of the 'no-name' ones that came with the case for $39.99, shipping included. It most assuredly will not. (At least for very long.)

my Dell PowerEdge 840 Servers Power Supply is 420W non-redundant, auto sensing. couldn't tell you if 300w will do. sorry

You may try it, although 300W is on a low side and it may force you to go to 450-500W power supply for any further upgrades you may have in mind. I put it in the system with 650W and it works great.

No, your wattage for your power supply should exceed your maximum draw (I'd recommend by 5-10%). My computer only draws 50W max but I got this PSU for other reasons. For me the 72W would work

From the Looks of the pictures I was able to find, it looks like it will. If you have a spare 120mm fan lying around, put it underneath the current power supply and see how much room that takes up. This PSU has a 120mm cooling fan, so that should give you a good rough estimate.

It's really more complicated than that, the card itself is 60W TDP (Thermal Design Point). You must consider your system's makeup -- i.e. processor, expansion cards, USB devices, drives, # monitors, and memory. Try searching on "power supply calculators" to see.That said, this card's TDP is so low, most systems should run it fine. A 300W PSU with an i7 CPU and lots of peripherals might have issues.

Negative. Motherboard itself supplies the power, though I would recommend making sure it can provide the required 350W.

I am not sure. I have previously installed a 1,000W Power Supply. Sorry I could not be of too much help. Regards!

the current 300W power supply should be able to support up to GT630 Graphic card. But if you do need to upgrade to a higher end graphic card then you will need a higher power supply.

yes it would, but if you're upgrading the PSU, why not go a bit higher in wattage? I'd personally get at least a 525w for this system. They did upgrade the stock PSU to a 500W, but it's a no name that I wouldn't trust and doesn't have enough connectors to do anything but run the rig as is.

Yes it will. That is what I installed mine in but running a 300w power supply, which isnt to much of a difference in power. It runs off of the mobo, but it would not hurt to install a bigger power supply.

No. It doesn't required separate power plug. Your 300W power supply will be fine. It is a good vid card.

Yes, should work fine. My Desktop had 500W in it when I was using this. It will be a VERY tight fit in that case though.

Your power supply is more than enough for this card. 300 watts is the minimum requirement, you have 350 watts so you are good to go, my friend.

Personally, I like to have a little more than required so i would go with an 850W PSU, so to answer your question, yes this one will work fine. You could also use a 750W PSU as well though.

I remember swapping out a power supply for a friend that had the slimline architecture. 300 watts was enough and it did fit into the computer. Be sure you have the screws lined up.
