Hey, guys. I have been trying to save up some money for an 8800 series GPU, and was wondering if I might have to get a new PSU along with it.
Here are my specs:
eMachines T5226
2 GB Kingston ValueRam
1 250 GB Western Digital Caviar HD, SATA 7200RPM
Intel Pentium D 925 Dual Core Processor, at 3.0 GHz, not OC'ed
SoundBlaster Extreme Gamer 5.1 Sound Card (PCI)
1 DVD+/-RW/CD-RW Drive
Current GPU is ATi Radeon X1650 Pro 512mb GDDR2 in a PCI-E x16 Slot
2 80mm Case fans
1 120mm fan on HSF (I think its 120, might be just a little smaller)
PSU Specs:
APower Platinum Deluxe
580W max output
19A on single 12V Rail
So, could this handle an 8800GT? I know one 12V rail is really sucky, but I got this PSU for 50 bucks down from 100, and it powers this computer just fine.
