Afternoon

Hope you are all having fun this afternoon, i have just been reading in a computer mag that the Nvidia 8800gt 512mb graphix card uses around 263 watts is this true? if so will my new antec 650watt psu run 2 of them a 95watt quad core, hard drive, dvd player, water cooling and mother board or can i expect problems?

The reason i ask is im currently running 1 8800gt 512mb, Q6600 quad core 95W, motherboard 2 hard drives and 2 dvd players, from a cheap 300w psu and have had no problems,

If it is going to be a problem i dont mind buying a new psu just like to know these things.

Cheers in advance for any help:confused:
 
Cheers. i thaught the figure was strangley high.

I have never realy looked at wattages when building a machine as i dont know what is the correct figure for each component. im happy to see how it will turn out
