    Question : Graphic Card

    I am thinking of buying the XFX 8600 GT 256mb card.

    Will it cause problems with my old 400w smps?
    Do i need to go for a 500w smps?

    Will that card work on XFX 650i Ultra - Motherboard ?

    Best people to ask are the suppliers of the card.

    Is it PCI/AGP. I regard to the psu, 400w should be sufficient, but yet again ask your supplier.

    That depends on your equipment as well, if you have a single hard disk and less stuff like fans / ccfls then 400W true power should be sufficient. If you're like me with a peltier + watercooling + the works, then you'd probably need more than 1 power supply lol.
