Is a 550watt power supply safe to power a Phenom x4 9650 and a GTS250 graphics card?

It might be, but it will depend on what other things are in your computer. Remember that the power supply runs everything in the PC. And the more stuff you have in there, the higher the electrical load. In addition to the mother board, there are the hard drive(s), the CD and/or DVDs, etc. Got a TV interface? A fat sound card? More? You get the picture. Note that it can be a challenge to calculate loads in a machine like this, but know that the 550-watt supply is a good sized one. It should be noted that we're now seeing power supplies in the 600- and 700-watt range. And the supply is considered by some to be a weak link in the machine, as it is often overloaded. Take an inventory of your machine. What kind is it? What is in it? Then ask someone who actually has some technical knowledge (like a PC technician) to evaluate your setup and offer a suggestion.

Does gigabyte support graphics in c plus plus?
C++ has no graphics support of any kind. It is intended to be as generic as possible thus there is no platform-specific support whatsoever. However, vendors typically supply graphics libraries to suit whichever platforms they support. E.g., Embarcadero Builder for Windows ships with WinBGI (Windows Borland Graphic Interface), a generic library intended specifically for Windows graphics. Gigabyte are a hardware manufacturer; as such they do not provide graphics support for C++. However, they do supply drivers which can be accessed via the operating system through C++.

you need to look at the card itself, depending on the card is if your power supply can handle it, but i imagine it should, i have a 730 watt in my case running a tricore.gigabyte mobo, 8 gigs of ram, plus the hds and roms, and a palit gts250 1gb graphics card. i dont see why it shouldnt.. but to make sure check the info out on the card first then make your discion.
