Will this videocard run on a 300 watts power supply?

I do not know. Check their website. Sapphire Radeon R7 260X 2GB GDDR5 HDMI/DVI-I/DP OC Version PCI-Express Graphics Card 11222-06-20G

As long as your Power Supply is a brand name like Cooler Master or something then yes it will run it fine.Don't listen to the idiots who tell you otherwise. I run cards that required 750 WATT PSU on my 400 Watt Cooler Master already with no problems. Your entire PC won't even reach 300 watts with this GPUIf however your Power supply is a bad one some generic crap it however won't run

No not enough amps on the 12 volt rail, you will need at least a 450 watt power supply with two 6 PCIe PEG connectors native. Antec VP-450 450W ATX 12V v2.3 ,Cooler Master Elite Power 460W (RS460-PSARI3-US) and SilverStone ST45SF-G 450-Watt all are great and run under $40. I normally try to go a little higher than what is recommended. If the Card asks for 450W I'll look at 550W-600W supplies.

as long as you have a PSU with at least 300 watts you should be fine-- if the card needs a pci express cable, you may have to use a molex or sata to pci express adapter- just fyi

I would suspect that if you're replacing a prior card in your system, your power supply will be adequate. This card does not require any additional power cable to be attached, it gets all its power from the graphic's slot. I would imagine if you have over a 300W power supply you're OK.

Should work fine, card is fairly small and does not need more than like a 450w ps.

You could run this on a 150w power supply as long as it wasn't garbage. It has no external power requirements, so the most it could possibly draw is 75w. This card won't even come close to that. The recommended 350w is extreme overkill because some people have extremely low quality PSU's that come with cases.

NVidia's online calculator says the stock (non-overclocked card) will work with a 300W power supply. This one should as well. It has an on-board power regulator that prevents it from drawing more than 75W. See NVidia dot com/content/HelpMeChoose/fx2/HelpMeChoose.asp?lang=en-us This does have the 6 pin power supply connector for a cable from the power supply to the card, on the top edge near the mounting bracket.

Yes it will. It may say 350W supply but you can get away with 300W with little to no performance drop off.

300 watts is insufficient for this card. I'd recommend a 500w of real power. Don't buy a cheap brand. The longevity and safety of your entire PC rests in the PSUs hand.

Nope. On the box it says a minimum amount of power to operate properly. I think a 350W power supply is not sufficient to run this card. Plus, you will need extra 2 peripheral power connectors if you do not have a 6pin power connector to the PSU

While it may work for some time I don't recommend using this video card with less the 400W power supply. Best, Martin

Depends on the rest of your hardware. This card uses 150w, you will have to calculate the rest on your own.Minimum recommended is 500w.

A 300 w PSU will probably allow it to operate, but if you can, I would get a better PSU since it affects graphics card performance. I ordered a new 400 w PSU along with this card. Just make sure you know what you're doing if you swap out the old PSU for the new one.

I would expect so, as long as you're not overloading it with other accessories or CPU power. The card specs say it needs 300W in addition to what the bus provides. The PSU lists 4 x (6+2 PCIe power connectors) which are what is needed to plug directly into the video card (1 or 2 of these). The graphics card should also come with a Molex to PCIe power cable, which you could also use to power things up. Have fun!

the current 300W power supply should be able to support up to GT630 Graphic card. But if you do need to upgrade to a higher end graphic card then you will need a higher power supply.

I would recommend you upgrade to a 300W power supply if you're going to upgrade the video card.

It should work, if anything, at least make sure your PSU is reliable. I had this card running with a 65W CPU on a 300W PSU

Hey Ronel,I have a 750 watt power supply that I am using with this card. However, a standard power supply one with no less than 350 watts should be enough to run the card with no problems. I would recommend getting a 400 to 450 watt power supply if you will be using this card for gaming.
