Hey, I'm thinking about a new video card. My CPU is intel core i3 530. Will it handle geforce gtx 560 ti?

Go to the web site for your computer manufacturer and look up the model it should give you all then info on it. The GTX 560 ti need a 500 watt power supple

PS: corsair vx550W Power supply. I had to open the PC anyway Smile

Well, it should be OK than. But what about CPU? I heard that certain CPUs work better with certain video cards. Will my i3 be enaugh for gtx 560ti?

Yep. I don't it will hold the 560 back. Of course, faster is always better Smile

550w is cutting is pretty close, but it should do nicely.

The 560ti is at least 9" (23cm) long. Make sure it will fit.
