@WestCal1998 yes that is enough to power the 9500gt.

[WestCal1998]

@PCTechTalks Ok my PSU specifications state that my 12VA has 12 amps max

and that my 12VB has 18 amps max... is that good??

[WestCal1998]

@PCTechTalks Ok thanks and one last question does it matter if i use the GeForce 9500 Gt on a pci-e x 16 1.0 slot? since the GPU is pci-e 2.0 right.

[PCTechTalks]

@WestCal1998 there should be a sticker on the PSU that will tell you your PSU specifications. You might have to take off both side panels in order to get access to the sticker.

[WestCal1998]

@PCTechTalks Ok and where exactly can i find this number? I know how to open my computer and such.

[PCTechTalks]

@WestCal1998 to check how much amps your PSU can deliver you will need to go inside your case. first step is to take of your side panel and ground yourself. you can ground yourself by touching any metal component on the PSU while it is plugged in and on the "OFF" position.

[WestCal1998]

@PCTechTalks How would i know if i have 18 amps on the 12v rail??

Sorry for asking these questions but this is my first time getting a GPU and i dont want to come home with something that my computer cant handle. Hope its not a bother to you but thanks for responding anyway.

[PCTechTalks]

@WestCal1998 as long as you have 18amps on the +12v rail and atleast 350watts, you should be able to power this card without any problems.

[WestCal1998]

@PCTechTalks Someone else said it only uses 50 watts but i think it did say it requires atleast 350 watts do you know if my comp. says DC OUTPUT: 350 watts do you think thats the total

[PCTechTalks]

@BlitzSoccerPL a 350watts PSU is minimum requirement so i dont think your 300watt will cut it =/
