Gigabyte GTX 550 ti 1GB vs GTX 460 768mb

[Darklonso]

So do power supplies come with 1 or 2? If I purchase a 550w Coolermaster one

I'm not suggesting anything.. I'm simply stating the facts. Notice the "but it'll be pushing the limit"?

Fair enough. But, for the sake of the OP I would simply say; get a new PSU if you plan to get a new GPU. And the 460 is > compared to the 550 ti.

A lot of modern ones come with 1-4 varying on the specifications.

The Corsair I linked will work with the 460 as it has 2x6+2pin connectors AND can pull the power the card requires.

Is it okay if it uses one of the following power connectors?:

1 x power 24 pin ATX with detachable 4 pin section
1 x power 8 pin +12V with detachable 4 pin section
2 x 8 pin PCI Express power with detachable 2 pin section
6 x 15 pin Serial ATA power
3 x 4 pin internal power
1 x 4 pin mini-power connector

2 x 8 pin PCI Express power with detachable 2 pin section


That's what you need.

So if I have a 550w PSU, with 2 x 8 pin, that will be all I need for the GPU?

Yeah, you'll have to detach the extra 2 pins on each PCI-E connector.

Okay so I guess that's all I need for now Thanks a lot everyone for your help.
