Do all fx card models use the power connector? (5200-5900) I have a 350w enermax, any thoughts if thats enough power from those in the know? Do Radeons use the connector too?

Every FX card from the 5200 Ultra on up use the connector (I think). I'm running a 5900nu on a 350W Fortron, so your Enermax should be fine. I think the Radeons from the 9700 on up also need the extra power also.

EDIT: As Jeff and Vian have pointed out the 5600nu does not require the extra connector.
