hi everyone, I have just ordered the following spec and think it should all be ok, I would be very grateful if someone could just check my power supply wattage vs. spec etc.
I don't do gaming (except Chess), so shouldn't need a dedicated gpu, but might want to add one in the future if the need or wish arises, in which case should I be ok with the 450W power supply?, any comments greatly appreciated, thank you.
