    "Dear ,

    I have just got rid of the same power supply for the same reason - its ATX 1 and doesn't deliver enough juice on the 12V rail for 7 series cards.

    IS THIS FOR REAL!?

    I REALLY need advice on this please before I WASTE money on upgrading my PSU.

    I HONESTLY thought this Antec TrueBlue 480w PSU would be PLENTY.


    HELP!?

    According to Leadtek's website, that card requires a 350watt PSU. I hope they are joking as that being the minimum

    I'm not 100% how these new dual +12V rail PSU work but that Antec True 480 delievers 18A on both +12V rails and that should be more than enough

    Even their big True550 only puts out 19A on both +12V rails


    I've got one of their older True430 and it has a single +12V rail and puts out 26A on that rail and it's not by designed supported for PCI-E cards, only because it doesn't have the connections in place, but that Trueblue 480 does.

    That PSU should be perfectly fine.
