The 4600 has a 250 watt power supply, the 6800 card needs at minimum a 350 watt supply depending on how much other hardware your running.

I don't know about any brand but most, if not all, 6800's say they require "A minimum 300W system power supply". Mine runs just fine on my 250W power supply. I think you left something out of your system description :smileyvery-happy:
