Not to hijack your thread, but would anyone know if a 500 Watt power supply be able to handle a 1GB video card?

You can find out a lot of useful information by researching the card at that particular store, and then reading the comments that have been posted online.

Somewhere within the comments some of the users of the card will state which power supply will handle the card, and what the minimum supply should be.

Now, considering that these are average users scattered around the globe, and not some paid spokesman, you will get some very helpful\ truthful bits of information.

I've found this to be a useful guide for selecting the right power supply wattage:

TA-DA! Major Score! New HP Pavilion P6000 counting as a "Refurbished" because of (really) minor case damage (as in a scratch). Saved probably $200.00 off list.
The fun parts -

Quad Core Processor
700 Gig harddrive
4.0 Gigs RAM
Integrated ATI Radeon 4200 HD card with access to 2.0 Gigs of running memory.
Bah, Blah, Blah...
Only thing I don't know is the power supply size. I'll figure that out later. :laugh:

Best part - THE GAME JUST FLYS!!!!!!!!!! Works flawlessly. Can use ALL the settings on MAX. It is so beautiful, I almost cried. Now I just have to get all my Mods back in. B)
See you all on the Battlefields.

Sic Semper Fidelis!
