Powersupply and ATI

I was thinking about getting a new graphics card, a 9600xt, but I'm not sure if I have a large enough PS. The one I have at the moment is a 235W PS. I thought ATI had some sort of power supply list for their cards, but I can't find it on their site or by searching the net. Thanks for any help.
 
I'm not sure. This is for my mom's computer, she is useing our old p2 350 case from tiger direct. The PS has lasted for over 6 years now at least, and not had any problems. On the order sheet I dug up, it just says tiger atx case with 235 PS, I've looked at the PS itself and it has no markings or labels. If a 9600xt needs a 350W ps or higher I'll just pass on it then, but if it's under I guess I'll try it out.
 
I'm looking to spend as little money as possible, I just need to know if it would work with that PS. I thought there were min specs for each Gfx card as too the PS but I can't seem to find them I thought maybe someoe else knew or had them.
 
Try looking at the manuel for the card on ATI's site. I know in the manuel for my 9800pro AIW it says minimum of 300watts.
