Hi all,

I've got an SK43G here with some sort of geforce MX installed. I'd like to know if anyone's had success with a more potent graphics card on such a weak, 200W PSU.

The current config:
Sempron 2600 (1.83GHz)
2x 512MB DDR
1x SATA (5400rpm)
1x DVD burner
The usual 80mm case fan plus a few 40mm fans on the chipset.

I'd like to try something like an X800 or 6600GT but conventional wisdom recommends a 300W PSU. The current one has a mere 10A on the 12V line.
 
Thanks guys. I've put some heavy stuff in shuttles before but I was a little concerned about this only having ten amps available on the 12V line. A mate's offered me a 6600GT so I might as well chuck it in and see what happens eh? :)
