Will It Run?

[Farmer]

I'm planning to transplant an old system to a new case. I am looking at this case mostly due to it's great price. I see that the PSU has 17 amps on 2 12V rails. I know this is a shot in the dark, but anyone have any insight on whether this old system will run on that PSU?

AMD Athlon64 2.0GHz
2GB DDR1
ATI X1950XT
1 7200RPM HDD
1 DVD drive

I only ask because I've been running this system on a PCP&C 620W unit with 49A on a single 12V rail, so I've had no problems with power. The main concern is obviously the GPU, I've seen this case and PSU combo recommended for brand new setups running HD4850s and GTS 250s, but I'm not sure at this point whether new GPUs draw more or less power than old ones.

Thanks.

Two 17A capable 12V rails, but combined capable of 27A. Yeah I think the Earthwatts 380W is capable of running your system.

Are you planning to reuse the PC P&C PSU on another computer?

Easily.

Thanks for the replies guys. I ordered it today as it got free shipping today, will see how it works out.

Yeah I'm keeping that one for an overhaul. I'm just taking the parts I'm replacing and throwing them in a new case.

Just did the transfer and everything seems to be running fine. Haven't tried any games, but seems like it works. Case is also quite solid. Good deal, I'd say. Thanks for your help again.
