I don't know if any of you are familiar with the shuttle case but,
Ok recently I've been thinking about buying a barebone shuttle. I went to Fry's yesterday and thought I would look at the specs and such and I noticed they have only low psu outputs like 250watts is the max. I also just bought a 128mb radeon 9800pro, and i think it said that the recommended power input to it is 300watts.
Would I still be able to plug my 9800 into the agp slot and get normal performance? Also, would i have cooling problems?
on a different note. I currently have a 2 year old computer with 512 mixed kingston ram, 2.0 ghz p4 processor, 128mb gf4 mx440, and some intel chipset of which i don;t know the model number. by installing my 9800pro, will i be able to use its potential to the utmost, or do i have a limiting factor that will not allow me to fully benefit from the gfx card (i.e. bad mobo)?
ty for help if you can
