i just have a question for you guys if i may

my current system is the dell e521 with psu at 305w

problem is i really want to get the 7600, but it "suggets" a psu from 350-400


is that a big problem???? what do you guys think i should do? (cost is an issue)

or i can not upgrade the psu and just get the x1300 from futureshop right now for 110

thoughts??????

The 7600GT only uses 36W max on load. I'm sure your power supply can handle it, even if it was a generic one. That's as much as I can comment on the power demand, however it is always a good idea to upgrade to a name brand power supply.
