i have a p4 2.4 ghz,1.25 gig ram,40 gig hard drive, and a 2600 pro
um well i just figured out that i have a 200 watt power supply and it says it needs 300+ would that be the reason for the fps drops?

yeah i'd think so haha
under loads the cards consume more power.
so if they aren't given the power than they don't perform well at all.
similar to a car running out of gas i guess.

 

better upgrade that
wouldn't be too much at all

antec is a pretty good brand.

 


EDIT: make sure it has all the power connectors you need, and don't get a really cheap brand a good PSU is important
