Thanks for you response my mates offering me the bfg 8800 gts 512 oc for £40 as the card i have atm is pretty poor thought it would be a good cheap upgrade but don't really want to fork out for a new psu.
 
Its running a 7800gt atm, i told him i couldn't really afford the card atm and he said i can pay bit at a time so can't grumble.
 
Its a good idea to try it but how will i know if its ok ? will it just not run or will it blow the psu
