On the side on the power supply it will have the specs listed, you should look at the +12v output, Nvidia recommends at least 24 amps for the PCI-E slot. I would not trust my expensive new parts to a generic 500 watt power supply, you get what you pay for. My method has always been to buy the parts I want in my computer, then buy a high quality power supply to run them with wattage headroom for an upgrade. If you ever decide to upgrade your video card, you will be glad you bought a higher output PS. Mike
