This is the system I plan to get-
Phenom II 945/Athlon II 620
ATI 5850
Cheap USD100 Xfire board
One 80GB sata 7200 RPM
4GB DDR3 800
One DVD-RW drive
Can I use a 300 watt supply that I have running around to power the CPU/mobo and get another 200 watter to power the GPU? The 5850's TDP is 151W afaik. But is this possible? I dont want to have to cut down on my CPU/GPU because of PSU constraints, as I am not a frequent upgrader-I upgrade every 4-5 years or so.
