I have a 400W power supply this these specs:

Input: 100V-120V 6A / 200V-240V 3A
output: +5v 32A, +3.3v 20A, +12v 16A, +5vSB 3A, -12V 0.8A , -5V 0.3A

My processor is Athlon XP 2800+ and I would like to know if I have the power to run it without problems thank! I am considering buying the BFG edition of 7800GS (AGP) or 7600GT (AGP). I personally do not care if it bottlenecks or not, as long as the card can maximize my options at 1280 x 1024 in gaming and will not blow my PSU.

I am not planning on overclocking the GFX card I end up getting. All I have for computer components are:

1 DVD RW drive
1 Wireless Internet Card
1 RADEON 9600 XT
Athlon XP 2800+
400W PSU @ 17A

I really hope you guys can help me out with this. Here is my PSU specifications (I think it is dual rail since it says 'split rail'):

I think you can run any graphics card that doesn't require an external power source, so the 7600GT is the best bet for you in my opinion.
