I have an old PC (but I have enough). And I wanted to upgrade my old video card, which is 11 years old (Radeon 3600) to a new one, but I wondered: Is my power supply suitable for the new video card now? I could not find an answer to this question on the Internet for a couple of days and found this site on which I am writing now. Thanks in advance
PS: (iron) i3-2100-perc. ASUS p8h61-m LX2 R2.0 motherboard. 8GB of memory (do not know which manufacturer) and the video card and power supply are written at the top

According to the first link on the manufacturer's website indicated

System power supply requirement: 600W

Your power supply is giving out

Power - 450 W

On the Yandex market in the characteristics:

Need additional power: yes, 8 pin + 6 pin

Your power supply does not have an "8-pin" connector:

Connectors
Motherboard connector type - 20+4 pin
Number of 4-pin CPU
connectors - 1 Number of 6-pin PCI-E
connectors - 1 Number of 15-pin SATA
connectors - 2 Number of 4-pin IDE connectors - 4
Number of 4-pin connectors Floppy-1

It is still possible to somehow dodge and connect via adapters (Molex-> 8pin), the system will start and show a picture. But stable operation is not guaranteed.

In addition to the old and insufficiently powerful PSU, your motherboard + processor: "when installing a Sandy Bridge processor, the slot will work as PCI-E 2.0"
That is, it makes no sense to install a video card with PCI-E 3.0, it will still slow down.
And, not, on the contrary: due to the "slowness" of the vidyuhi on the old motherboard and processor, your PSU will probably cope with everything. As 15432 recommends above , "you can still connect via adapters (Molex-> 8pin)," and then look after the fact.
