will this run with a new 400W psu?

It would depend on what else is running in your system, but I would recommend 500w+. This particular card is pretty efficient on power. At peak performance it can consume about 160-170watts. That's taxing it pretty hard though. But throw in a couple hard drives, optical drive, fans, and any power consuming usb peripherals, along with whatever your motherboard and processor use, and you will have an issue. Most retail systems come with a 300watt psu and they don't have a ton of overhead. 400 watts isn't much higher. I think you are asking for trouble unless you aren't planning on taxing the system with high end games. I would recommend a 600w but I think you could get away with 500 watts.

Sounds like that's a 250 Watt power supply. It doesn't hurt to use a beefier power supply, so a 400W would fulfill your power needs very well. I don't know why companies put puny power supplies in things. As long as it has the connectors you need for your motherboard and hardware, it should do fine. The person who got this supply put in his computer says it's been working fine.

Should be fine. I have this card and a 550 watt psu and haven't had any issues since I got the card a few months ago.

You need to upgrade to 500. My PSU was only 300 W and I upgraded to a 500 W Corsair unit. The PSUs aren't that expensive. I didn't want to take the chance. Haven't had any problems.

I think you might be pushing it with a 400W PSU. I guess it depends on the item quality. You may be just fine. Not really an answer, sorry.

From memory a 400 Watt PSU is needed. I went 500 Watts just so I could have a little extra.

Yes. I am running it just fine off a 650W PS. Make sure its a decent quality Power supply though.

Yes it will work, any issue you might have would be from the power supply not being strong enough, I would say a bare minimum of a 650 watt psu.

You will need to connect it to the power supply. Most psu should have the pcie connectors for it, which I believe are two 6 pins.

I can't say for sure, since I don't own that model PSU, but I would say yes. The screw placement appears to be default. Also make sure the wattage is high enough for your needs.

400 watt or greater is the recommendation for this model. You should calculate how your psu is destrobuting it's power to make sure you can delegate enough to the card

Yes, just be careful not to overclock your GPU or CPU too much, this PSU can't power that much. Otherwise should be fine.

You should be OK. I just built a steam machine with a 430w PSU and I'm running this card just fine!

No, or at least not well. This unit would be massively underpowered. find out how many watts your old power supply was running. then add a minimum of 200 more. look for bronze, silver or gold in the title. take a hard earned lesson from me and don't cheap out on your power supply.

you only need a 500 watt psu for this board, I have 2 running with a 750 watt psu, so you should be fine, newegg has a power consumption calculator, just goggle that

*Minimum 350W or greater system power supply (with a minimum 12V current *rating of 20A)3 This was from PNY website so no it won't work on your system unless you also upgrade your PSU. If you meant you have a 350 watt PSU & mistyped it then yes it will work

I use a 450 with mine and it seems to be working fine. I didn't get a message about any psu requirements though.
