Drowsiness Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Your CPU, while not the best, is fine for the 6970 or 6870. Just make sure you have a big enough power supply made by someone who makes quality parts. Like Corsair or PC Power & Cooling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sillybach Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 The graphic card will say what power supply is needed for it to run optimally. I always go 50 watts over just to be sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
