Im just about to purchase:

256Mb XFX AGP GEFORCE 6600GT DDR3 TV+DUAL DVI

to replace my old tired 128Mb 4800SE. I want a card that runs games at 1280*1024 with no problems at reasonably high settings.

Just checking that it will it work with my current system?

Power supply enough? (I dont overclock)
Any Bottlenecks?
Does the card have a power supply directly into it?
Will there be a good improvement?

Thx

I currently have an Enermax 350W. The card is costing me around £120 so an extra £60 is pointless if AGP is dead. May as well save the extra cash for a big PCI upgrade in a year or so.
 
I did a PSU calculator a few days ago and for my potential new system and it was something around 290W needed so I should be OK. If the card does need its own power I have plenty of molex's left.
