350w? that is pushing it, the graphics card alone needs 250w, add CPU, RAM, hard drive and DVD burner and you got yourself a system that will need more than 400w to run smoothly, you could run it with 400w power supply but your system wont last very long, power supply is probably the only part you should not cheap out on when it comes to PC. |
Well, worst case power will be higher than 350W. But typically even a high end PC with dual graphics cards and a >120W CPU will draw maybe 200W at load. Look at some reviews of high-end hardware at techreport.com and elsewhere. So if you're willing to risk it then 350W can do it. Personally I would do >=450W from a quality brand.
