|  Can my PSU handle this?
I currently have the following 480 watt psu: Antec.com - Neo480 SpecSheet
I am now running:
core 2 duo 2.53 ghz processor (says it's extra power friendly on the box)
x1900xt
1 dvdrw writable drive
1 sata hard drive
1 basic sound card
2 gigs ram
What I want to do, and I know this is pushing it, is replace the x1900xt with an HD 4850. Will this be possible? |

Just letting you know, that psu has really low amperage... If you do end up having computer problems, consider your psu..

Its sufficient, if he doesn't overclock either the HD 4850 and the e7200 a lot
