Right so,

 

I'm looking into getting a 8800GTX for my Birthday but i only have a 500w PSU, its a Seasonic M12 and im wondering how it will cope with this card in terms of Power.

 

Here are the specs of the rest of my PC.

 

Core2duo CPU

2x120mm Fans

X-fi Soundcard

3 7200rpm Hard drives

DVD drive

Memory Card Reader

2gig DDR2

 

So even if the PSU can cope with the new Card will i still have eough power left to OC and add PCI cards and more RAM etc or will i have reached my limit?

 

Thanks in advance.

Wow, fairly similiar to mine. Okay, I have a 650w Antec PSU, works like a charm and i have around 90watts left for future upgrades according to my bios.
