OK I got a HD4870 Vapor X today and I was wondering if my PSU could cope with it its a Thermaltake 420W its this one http://www.thermaltake.com/product/Power/TR2power/w006162/w006162.asp, it only has one 6PIN power line buit I used an adaptor for the other one, the back of the PSU is getting hot when the system is under load, so could it cope with it? or will it crack in time? here are my current system specs:
MB ABIT AX78
CPU Athlon X2 7750BE OC to 3.1GHz 1.4V (its a Agena Phenom with 2 cores locked so it has a TDP of 95W on stock with OC donno maybe 110W)
RAM 2x2GB 800MHz@1066 with 2.1V
GFX HD4870 OC to 820MHz core and 1200Memory (I dont realy understand how DDR5 work but I heard its Quad pumped so that means 4600MHz effective, or not Big Smile )
1x160GB WD SATAII
1x640GB WD SATAII
Creative X-Fi Gamer
2 80mm fans

Thanks
Thanks Cristi
