4th Generation Intel Core i7-4790 Processor (8MB Cache, up to 4.0GHz)
16GB Dual Channel DDR3 at 1600Mhz
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760Ti with 2GB GDDR5
2TB SATA 6Gb/s (7,200RPM) 64MB Cache

Motherboard Class
Mini-ITX Motherboard

I was going to buy myself the ALienware x51.
HOWEVER, using these specs i'm doubting whether the power supply is capable.

The maximum power supply the x51 can handle is 330W.. is this enough to make the system function as it should with these specS?

I need some information.

I need an exact model and link to the 760 you wish to run. This will help me assert you will not be able to run this on a 330 watt.

I do not recommend doing this at all anyways. 330watts is so bad. My old computer had 350 watts and could barely handle a GTX 750ti SC and i5 3.2 ghz processor. I cannot see the components you want in this build not working at all. 330 Watts is simply not enough.

Can you replace the PSU?

x51 motherboard doesn't support above 330W. Main reason i may not buy the system.

However it still leaves me wondering why they sell it with 330W.

Well I'm sorry but you cannot do what you want to do with the x51. I personally hate AlienWare because of the overpriced but horrid systems they create. Try looking at ASUS or build the PC online with ibuypower or cyberpower.

Sorry
