hi
i just bought a new gforce xfx 6600gt 128 mb
and have an antec 350w power supply...
well the problem is that i play world of warcraft
and when i log in... after about 1-5 minutes... my monitor loses signal...
so i'm just wondering if that is insufficient power problem?
i bought the power supply about a month ago and i don't really know the power supply requirement for the 6600gt...
can someone tell me what's wrong with it?
 
I believe the gforce 6 series requires atleast 300 watts of power. However, if you're running multiple harddrives or optical drives your system will require more. What are you full system specs ?
