Hello all,
I've been thinking about buying the radeon x800 pro but I'm doubting if my current system can handle that stuff :angel: .
First thing i'm worried about is the power supply since this thing is... big.
Right now i got 300W power supply, its from A open.
I got a P4 2.8ghz and 2 ram modules both 512mb, also got a DVD burner...
Will 300W be enough, though i doubt it.
Second thing i was thinking about was if the mobo is "competible" with the videocard:
mobo: MSI PT880 Neo, socket 478.
The videocard i have in it now is a GF FX 5600XT 128mb....
Now is suspect the power supply is going to be a problem.
but i wonder if there are any other problems that i might get, so what i'm asking
if i should buy a different mobo and/or power supply.
and if i need to buy another power supply, what would i be looking for?
thanks anyway.
