I'm surprised there aren't more threads of this nature... I searched and didn't find any so don't flame please :[[
I found out I had a problem last night when I was averaging 20 FPS in the first test of 3Dmark06. Hopefully the 8800 GTX is capable of a whole lot more than that or I've been mislead lol. I have an Aspire (Apevia) beast power PSU. It's 680w with 24A on 12v+. It is to my understanding that 30A is required. It takes two power connectors for this card though... do the amps get added? with two 24A connectors does that equal 48A total or not? I think it doesn't but im just making sure ^.^
Anyway I'm just getting confirmation that my PSU doesn't have enough umph for my new GPU before I get http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817703005
