Will My PSU Run The 8800GTS?

Here is my power supply.

I want to run the GeForce 8800GTS. And yes, I have an open PCI x16 slot on my mobo.

Which GTS, there are 3 versions, the 320MB, the 640MB or the newer, better, 512MB version?

Well, it's needs 26Amps, so it should just about run it, Yeah...

That PSU is very over-rated (and so are all the eXtremepowers). See if you can find a CM Real Power Pro onsale, I got my 650watt for $60 and it's a great PSU.

Well, I'm running my HD3870 (Sapphire version needs 30 amps) with a Rosewill 550W PSU that costed me like $55 bucks. It has 31A on 12+ rail so since the new GTS uses less power, I guess you can go ahead with the one you have.

I will keep my opinion to myself because you didnt ask for what we think of the PSU. So to stay on topic about if the PSU will power it. Yes it will. also you are getting a great Vid card
