That power supply is nowhere near enough for the system and this card. Upgrade to at least a 750W name-brand (i.e. Corsair) power supply. Do NOT use a cheap high-powered one like the other guy suggests because those are far more dangerous. Besides a lack of extra shielding and insulation, they are far more likely to fail AND if they fail, they will probably take other parts of your computer with them. I only use Corsair in mine. I've got the AX1500i one, Titanium 80 rated 1500W with up to 94% efficiency.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The answer is that it can definitely work with your motherboard that you described. The Power Supply should be good enough. as well. If it doesn't seem to work the only possibility would be the power supply and having to up the wattage amount by buying a higher leveled power supply. Which they've really gone down in price for them. Heck i've seen 1600 watt power supply for $89 so lol if your looking for something with more oomph for power supply so it will last a long while. Their is that option. But that should be able to be used though.
