Will a 300/350 watt PSU support a Radeon 6670, FX-4300 and this motherboard? If not, what's the recommended wattage for that system setup?

That is a popular question, you can check on Toms Hardware for other discussions. AMD recommends 400w, I also used an Antec 550w for mine but others have reported that they got by with 300w but it depends on the efficiency of the power supply.

I am using the antec 550 watt power supply which is working well for me with the am2 processor 2.6 ghz. I had another system with a 350 watt that seemed to run a little noisy. I don't know the minimum requirement but if have had enough power supply failures to know not to the minimum out. Sometimes the power supply manufacturer fudges the numbers. At least that was true in the past. Since this is for my company I opt on the safe side.

Sorry I'm AMD all the way, but your motherboard mfr and/or the card mfr should have recommended power supply requirements on their sites...

I used a 650 W PSU, but it depends on your mobo/cpu requirements. I referred to the Puget Systems site for analysis and guidance. You are likely OK - I built in some headroom for expansion later.

That should be fine. I'm running a 500 watt right now with this card, which would more preferable for future upgrades.

Yes, you are fine with a 650 watt PSU.I'm using an i5 and this card on my PC with 450 watts, so I believe you're in the clear.

The power target of the GTX 660 is only 115W compared to its TDP of 140W (and reviews seem to show it running closer to that 115W). You should be fine adding it to your system, assuming you don't have 10 HDDs in there as well.

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 anything over 300W is more than enough, however i wouldn't chance it. This is probably the most unstable video card on the market. This model is notorious for blue screens after installation. Buyer Beware.

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.

According to Newegg customer responses this card will work with as low as a 250 watt psu. However, a 400 watt PSU is recommended.

You do NOT need anything over a 300 watt to run this card. I've seen people running a GTX 670 on a 330 watt.

300 Watt should be able to support the current spec right now. But in the future if you are planning to upgrade to a higher end graphic card, I do recommend a larger power supply.

The system may run but it will be at a performance loss. I am running this card with an AMD FX8350 8 core @ 4.00Ghz and an MSI 970A-G46 MB and running good on a 600 Watt PSU. I would recommend at least a 600 Watt.

I suspect so but I am using a 430 watt PSU. Go to pcpartpicker.com and enter your components such as graphics card, motherboard and hard drive. Enter any component that consumes power. It will then indicate how many watts your system will use.

I have a 430 watt PSU, and it runs perfectly. Those recommended wattages are usually overstated.

300W is barely enough if you use the onboard video, depending on the CPU power requirement. If you add in a separate video card, you really should go up to 450W or 500W.

I don't know the exact wattage requirements for your setup (you have to take into account the number of fans. CPU cooling, number of hard drives and optical drives, etc). But an 850W PSU is almost certainly enough for your rig. You can check out some websites like: powersupplycalculator.net to double check. But I'm 99.99% sure you will have PLENTY left over with an 850W PSU.
