The current PSU doesn't seem to be supply enough amps to power the geforce 6800GT or the new Ati x1950PRO I tried to install last night.
You can hear the PC booting and the it sounds like it it going into windows but I get no display but when I install the old Geforce5 it works fine.
Can someone recommend a midrange PSU that will work with this board but it also good enough to handle an Ati x1950 pro.

Thanks.
 
Well, I'm running an ASRock 775i65, E4300, 2Gb RAM, X1950Pro AGP, 2HDD and 2 optical drives off a 380W Tagan Silent TG380-U01. Should be £40-ish or the Akasa Paxpower 400W/460W are also excellent, but an extra £10 or so. The Tagan is also genuinely silent whereas the Paxpowers are just very quiet.
 
Does the monitor display anything during the POST and then go blank as Windows loads or is it blank from the second you power on?
