Hey all,
I've read how people have used an 8600 gt, even and 8800gt in a Shuttle barebones kit with only a 250W PSU. I would like to use the 8600 GTS model in this system with the following other hardware: AMD Athlon x2 4850e, 1 stick of DDR2 800 ram, 1 hard drive, 1 dvd rw. According to Antec's power supply calculation web page, this system would use a total of 180Watts of power.
The purpose of this video card would be for me to run dual monitors in the future and to also play some current and older games, such as Call of Duty 4, Half Life 2, World of Warcraft.
Do you think this system would be stable?
Any comments are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
