How silly would it be to attempt to power a FX-8350 or i5 4690K & GTX 960 w/ this built in PSU?

However, if you're not doing gaming, it may work just fine. Keep a close eye on all temperatures to be sure.

Very silly. The power supply may have enough watts but not a high enough voltage rating on the rails. Does that make sense? Its not a bad case though.
586677
I don't think I would. You plan on using a high power processor with a high power video card. It will probably work for a short while but my prediction is it will ultimately damage something. I think you will need a 750 watt or better power supply.

I have not idea? The power supply is pretty nice and I am very happy with it but I am only using it on at P7-300.

The power supply is not a high-end power supply but should handle your setup. Fortunately, the GTX 960 only required 120 watts, It would not be a silly setup.

Not to silly since it has a 350w supply and the fx8350 uses less Than 200w and the gtx960 uses less than 120w so that's 320w just under max output. But I do recommend a more powerful psu in the near furture. I have had mine for about a year and it's still works just fine

Yes, if that PS has 4 PCI-E connectors. Would most likely be a 750 watt ps or more. With that said, it does not make any sense to operate these units unless you were given them for free and you get very cheap power as you will not make much coin operating them.

Yes, but you can also probably get away with less wattage if you don't have any graphics card with it, I would say look for a 250 watt power supply.

The 7850 is a power sipper - a 500w PSU would be fine unless you have a lot of other components that are using lots of power.

I agree with GEEZERBUTLER.. who could recommend a powerful + compatible + cheap power supply for this computer?/ thanks

Your best bet is to google "PSU Calculator" and because they are all slightly different plus the components into each online calculator and see what they give you for a wattage count. Usually they are configured to calculate a 90% load. So whatever wattage you get is usually on the high end of your system running at near max conditions. My system running two of these with the FX 8350, 16gb RAM, 1 DVDRW, and Corsair H60 uses about 600w. However, start overclocking those cards and you can jump the wattage up quickly. I went to 850w psu to be safe but ran cards at stock clock

Yes. It should be fine. You have a PCI express X 16 slot and unless you've beaten the crap out of the computer or you already have a bunch of attachments your PSU should still have enough juice to power it?

Sorry really not familar with the CPU -probably would if you hard wired to you connectors-or get a cheap 12v transformer-try GW-boutique- sure couldn't beat the price if you can't get it to work- just think of the fun you will have experimenting.

Most likely not, you simply wouldn't have enough current available. I wouldn't use anything less than a 750 W

Unless I am mistaken, your PC has an external power supply. So I would have to say no.

I highly doubt you'll be using two processors to their limit, yes a 850-watt power supply will suffice. In fact, I believe you'll be perfectly fine with it even if you're running the system to its highest capabilities.

NO :) if you do try your CPU will get fried cause thats what happened to me on a 350 watt PS

You'll have to use either a Thin-ITX board with internal voltage regulation, or a picoPSU unit. Both require external power bricks.
1770147
Yes you can as long as you don't have a CPU with a very high TDP like one of the AMD 220w monsters, (I used it very successfully with a 280w Dell PSU).
772929
Probably yes. However it depends on the amount of hardware you are supporting. Try one of the online calculators. Try find one that isn't provided by a psu manufacturer. They may not be entirely objective.

the wattage should be fine but you also need supplemental power plugged directly into this card from the psu.
