The minimum requirements for the card are:
A 425W PCI Express-compliant system power supply with a combined 12V current rating of 28A or more *Minimum system power requirement based on a typical PC configured with an Intel® Core™2 Extreme X6800 processor
I have a 12V with 25A with either 250 or 350 watts (Dell website said stock power is 350watts but the power supply in my PC says 250watts.)
I am running a Nvidia geforce 6600GT and the power requirements are 400W with 12V with 26A , and i have no problems that i know of.
Could i run the 8800 with my power now or is it crucial to upgrade power?
