A stock dell PSU will probably handle an X800 XL or 6800 GS.

I bet it will handle it too. My Dell at work is a Dimension 4700 and has worked fine with the following PCIe cards: 6800GS, 6800 Ultra, 6600, and X300.
And my home computer is a Shuttle with a 240W power supply which runs an AGP 6800GS with no problems.
