Well, poop
Apr. 8th, 2010 12:36 amTurns out the power supply in my computer (according to the little sticker on it), is rated for 350 W max, which, on a side note is interesting, because the video card recommends a 400 W power supply.
This means that either the new video card, whatever it may be, will have to have something along the same lines in power requirements OR I buy a new power supply when I get the video card (although I have no idea how difficult it is to replace a power supply) OR I get a video card that allows for an extra (external) power supply.
I suspect the latter may be the easiest way to handle it.
