Yep I have a 7300..... But I cant install it, well I could, but do I dare at least power it up on a 300Watt PSU to see if it works? I ran a 6200 AGP on a 250 for a week or two and didnt have problems but...... I dont know if I dare.... lol Cheers, Gunny

Probably not, considering the problems I've had caused by an inadiquate PSU over the last couple of months.

well my system is factory, I just want to power it up, Put drivers on and see how she runs, I think I will, And then pull it back out.... Cheers, Gunny

Well I installed it, Ran FS9 fine at a perfect 20 fully maxed out without traffic etc, that was in WOP fighters.... and then, in the FSX demo I ran it 70% or so, with a few slideshows here and there...... also I paid for a 256 meg card, and Its telling me it has 512.... this could be a problem but, I can live with it..... well I am happy, though I have a few blurs here and there that are driving me nuts, but I guess I'll get used to it, I may take it out if my system starts acting like crap, because of power..... But I'd say for 50 bucks, its a pretty decent card..... for fs that is! Cheers, Gunny

Christ, buy a bigger powerpack. A bog standard 450w one will only cost you

[Gunny04]

Yea I know, I need a new PSU, I have a 450.... Just gotta get another pair of cables to see if it will work properly.... But the card runs beautifully! Cheers, Gunny

Great to hear you like it. I hate my 6600GT. I'm going with ATI next time.

I have a 3.4ghz 90nm Prescott, 2gb RAM, and a X850XT PE, and it runs fine on a 350watt PSU. A 300watt should run t hat

But I guess my PSUs max output is 480watts so....

I need somebody around here to help me find a fan for the 7300LE.... It comes stock with a heatsink type thing, runs in the yellow, and I'd like to try overclocking etc........ Cheers, Gunny
