At compUsa the GForce 6800 vid card is 200...

Now if I buy that, and get a
AMD Athlon 64 3200+
ASUS "A8V Deluxe" VIA K8T800 Pro Chipset Motherboard For AMD Socket 939 CPU -RETAIL
120 GB Maxtor Ultra ATA HDD
DVD+-RW Drive


How much power would I need? Would a 400W Antec PSU be sufficent?

I may have to go pick up one myself. I just went out to get the paper and saw the deal.

This seems like an awesome card for an older machine of mine, so I'll probably go pick one up today. I wonder how it'll perform in a dual P4 Xeon machine... Is this a single-slot card that I could slap into an SFF case later if I want to?

EDIT: Looks like it is. I'm on my way.

With that, you should be safe but just to be sure, I'd get at least a 450w.
Maybe a crappy 450W. A good 300W or even a good 250W PSU can handle a 6800NU.
