Power Supply Question

Postby CAFedm » Wed Feb 08, 2006 4:44 am

Hello,

Added a new video card recently (ATI Radeon X850 Pro) and the recommended power supply required is at least 350 W.

If it works, my guess is it's ok, as long as it's not stressing the PSU to failure, and I don't know how to determine that.

If you are worried, by all means update the PSU, if not, enjoy your new video card   8)
