Does this system has enough power for X800 XT PE?

[gevorg]

Hi all,

I finally decided to upgrade my Radeon 9700Pro to X800 XT PE (AGP). My current system has a 380watt PS (it came with Antec Sonata). Will this PS handle the new graphic card?

Here are the specs of my system:

Athlon64 3000+ on Asus K8N-E Deluxe
Corsair 512MBx2 PC32000 CAS2.5
Pioneer 109 DVDRW
WD Raptor 36GB, Seagate 200GB & 160GB (7200rpm)
EMU 1212m sound card
ATI AIW 9700pro

Thanks!


Update: clarified model version

it should but which one are you getting? the XT or theXL? the XL uses less power.(around 70-77W)

The "RADEON® X800 XT PLATINUM EDITION AGP 256MB"

yes it will, they hardly use different amounts, an xt is an overlcocked xl.

Actually, the XL is an underclocked XT.

Yes, it should work fine. The x800 series consumes a little less energy than past generation 9800s.

actually the x800xl is a different core than the x800xt/pe so it cant be an underclocked version of the x800xt

Which cores?

well since Im lazy, you can look it up yourself Anand, but off the top of my mind its core R423 and it runs at a 110nm instead of a x800xt's 130nm.

But I could be wrong about that.
