The link to the card is borked its for the case not the card. If the 760 your looking at has two power connectors most likely a 8 pin and 6 pin pci-e You will be fine. I'm running a asus dcu 2 oc 760 on a corsair cx500 with a amd 8350 and its fine.

Looks good to me says you need a psu with amps on the 12 volt rail. Your psu has three 12 volt rails each with 22 amps and the card you want use one 8 pin and 0ne 6 pin pci-e. The one thing I cant find out is what connectors on the Psu correspond to each 12 volt rail.

I would never under amperage a power supply, it causes OTHER things to prematurely fail from my understanding. Been doing PC repairs for years, and it's always been the same crapbox PSU I receive from Dell, HP, Gateway, even Sony....

I'd say you need a stronger PSU before you can get that.... Not one with a 30a rail, but give it 5-10 more amps for leeway (sort of like room to breath so you don't stress the PSU out too much).

I've always been a fan of thermaltake's PSUs, not that you should get it, but it's worked out well for me.

I personally own this one : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817153106 (which is out of stock now). I haven't purchased a new PSU in a LOOOONG time, and as you can see, the PSU houses a whopping 69a (I believe I paid $45 for it at the time though). which was a steal.

GL either way! I hope this helps.

I've installed that exact Antec 550W PSU into 4 systems built for friends and family and 2 of the systems are running high-end cards with no issues. One has a GTX 670 and one has a Radeon HD 6970. The system with the HD 6970 is also running a 125W Phenom II X4 955BE CPU. Both systems have been up and running for 2+ years without a single issue. You shouldn't need a new power supply to run the GTX 760 in your current system. A 550W PSU is plenty for nearly any system with a single GPU.

wtf is lolcats?

I'd def get a fat hooker if i had to resort to that kinda thing. I feel like they'd be grateful and work harder. Also its more bang for my buck, more real estate for my dollar if you catch my drift. its like the Costco of streetwalkers.

I was hoping for 150 :(.

I was hoping she would let me put it in her butt
