Hellow, I'm new into the whole building computers thing and I would like a little help. So I recently bought a used XPS 630i, it is, however, a little different from the stock one, the thing is I want to change the Graphic card it had when given to me for two Radeon HD 6950 of 2 gb and I would like to know if it would work out, here is my rig info:

Intel core 2 quad CPU Q9550 @ 2.83GHz 3.01 Ghz
64 bit operating system
GeForce GTX 280
6gb ram(crazy right?)
And my TV is 1360x 768, 60hz
I would appreciate any recommendations or tips for this computer also, I know is kinda old but I just love the case.

after checking out the service manual it is a 750w power supply and quite modern motherboard. I don't think you will have any issues installing any video card inside it... its a mid tower, should handle the video cards, and Slot 1 and Slot 4 pf your PCIE are the video
card slots.

Dell source http://downloads.dell.com/manuals/all-products/esuprt_desktop/esuprt_xps_desktop/xps-630_owner%27s%20manual_en-us.pdf

calculated it and result came to about max 480w usage so 750w is plenty

The power supply is the stock 750w one, and the label says 2q3d6j1
