Hello...
I have just bought a graphic card called: ASUS AH3650 SILENT/HTDI - Radeon HD 3650 - AGP 8x - 512 MB DDR2
Well, my computer has a Power Supply on 240W.
So my question is "Will the graphic card work on my computer, or?"
Thanks for reading. Hope to see some replies soon :)

Best Regards
Custom

http://extreme.outervision.com/psucalculatorlite.jsp - To count how much your PC would need power from power supply. But as cDa said, you would need new power supply. I would recommend something from 400-500W.

Also all you need to know that does your motherboard have AGP 8x spot for graphic card, if not, you can't use that graphic card.

Something that might help you:

Thanks for the help. I got no problems with that. I just wanted to be sure about the power supply, before I go buy one ;)

Well, I wont take that risc. The solution is now to buy a Power Supply. Then we'll see how hard it will be to install on the motherboard, guess I need some friend IRL to help me with that :razz:
