Dear Prometheus, about the 6800...

[Jason425]

go ask my good friend bill...


I doubt 400's going to do it.. hopefully you can get into windows.. but if you game i doubt 400 will be able to handle the load.. they say something like 500.. but those are for noob psu's.. for good ones you prob don't need as much..

[Prometheus]

so do i need another PSU or not?

Unless it's an Antec, then yes. Should've waited.....

[Prometheus]

its a 400w PSU for sure I just checked

DO I NEED ANOTHER PSU OR NOT!

[Jason425]

what brand noob.. powermax?

if it works, you won't be overclocking much....... you make the call.. hell, buy my psu!

[Prometheus]

I dont want to OC

I will see if it runs tomorrow

[Prometheus]

Yeah. im fucked

Dear Customer,



Your 400 watt psu should suffice for the e-Geforce 6800 Ultra. But please keep in mind that it will vary with other factors such as the quality of the power supply unit and how many other harddrives and cd/dvd roms are also in the same computer. Once again in general, a 400 watt psu should suffice.

Yeah, but when you have everything else hooked to it, you're going to need more juice.
