New to building computers, would this work?

[Parasitic]

The card requires 450w, the psu there is 380w.

Really, this is something I wouldn't even risk. The requirement is there for a reason. When I was new'ish to pc hardware, I fried two gpu's because I didn't know anything about power supplies. Of course it was a very old Dell and it took about 9 months for each to go dead but still - after that, I personally would feel a little paranoid straining a card even a little without even meeting the req.

Occasionally on Newegg you'll see comments from people saying that they're running a card with a weaker psu, but the damage isn't something that happens overnight. It'll screw you over in the long run and even has a slight chance to fck up more than the gpu.


Get a seperate case and psu. It'll be tons better compared to that case/psu combo. Again, keep in mind the possible future damage from having a weak psu.
