Hi Raddy,
That PSU has 14 Amps on your 12+ volts and Max 220w. You are going to have a hard time with that power supply and modern graphics cards. You are more than likely pulling close to Max power already. You might want to upgrade that PSU if your looking to put a powerful graphics card in that machine.

If its a standard PSU you can change it, but that system is very old. I am not sure its worth changing PSU.
If your tight on cash, second hand could be a option.
AMD FX 6300 bundle
- Gigabyte 970a DS3 Motherboard
- AMD FX 6300
- Corsair H80 water cooling system
Just add PSU and Graphics Card and Memory
Got yourself a cheap gaming rig to play all your games at resemble specs

@RADDY1993 The MSI UK N720 you listed requires a 300W PSU as stated in the specs. You will need to upgrade that PSU. That card also consumes 23W under load.

, that bundle looks not bad but i was just wanting to upgrade this system at the moment. Now after some research i have seen my PC can the 2 cards below, please explain the difference and which is best.
, so back to looking for a PSU i suppose . Do you have any other ones that would fit my system, remember im tight on space.
