I found a GTX 780 TI 3 GB for $450 Brand new.

I currently have this PC, and i'm wanting to upgrade from GT 640 1 GB to GTX 780 TI 3 GB.

I have a ASUS Tower. Here's the model number, so you can see if it will work.

I know I'll have to upgrade the PSU, but will it work on a ASUS Motherboard??


ASUS CM6730 i5 3.1GHz 16GB 1TB DVDRW Nvidia GT 640 Desktop

Because everything else is fine.

I may upgrade the motherboard at some point, but I need my question answered.

Will a GTX 780 TI 3 GB work on a ASUS Motherboard with a 550 PSU?

CPU is a Intel i5 3.3 GHz
