Gtx 1650 with uncertified power supply

El_Rolyman · Saturday at 4:37 AM

I've been saving up to buy a GTX 1650 and I'd like to know if it would be okay like this, even though there's probably a bottleneck or the power supply is insufficient.

Cpu: i5 3330
8 GB DDR3 Dual Channel 1600 MHz
1 SSD and 2 Hard drives
Uncertified power supply (does not say the amount of watts)

I have a question about whether the GTX 1650 would cause a problem with the power supply and if I need to buy another one, apart there is a processor bottleneck. If you can help me I would be very grateful.

It will probably be fine. They don't use much power (70-75 watt, something like that). Chances are that your power supply is at least a 250w.

More details about your computer would make it easier to determine.

Thanks, I don't know if these details are useful or useless but I have a motherboard Asus P8Z77 M Pro, a Sentey case with a single fan connected and then I only use the connected USBs. The GPU I currently use is the Radeon HD 5450

I was just curious if it was an OEM system....it would make it pretty easy to figure out what was in it. I think you'll be fine.

A new power supply is never a bad idea if you have a questionable one, but anything 250w or more should do just fine. Probable that it is a Sentey power supply that came with the case.

Snag a picture. Bet someone can find the model.

Uncertified can mean any number of things - some of which might set off safety alarms and red flags.

If you mean it is not 80 Plus certified for efficiency, then safety "may not" be a problem UNLESS it is underpowered.

I would not use any PSU (certified or not) unless I knew with a great deal of certainty it had the capacity to support the connected devices.

Yeah psus do require a part number on them for maintenance, so it should give us what max output is

Never saw a power supply that does not specify the power.

I thought that was odd too. ???

It is similar to this power supply, I do not send the one from my PC because I am not at home

I would replace that thing as soon as possible.
