Optiplex 320 and ATI Radeon X1300
Does anybody know if an ATI Radeon X1300 256MB video card will work with the Optiplex 320, mini-tower? I see where the PCI-e slot is limited to 25W max. Don't know if the 256MB card will go over that limit. Dell has P/N UJ973 which is a refurbished card. Can get the same on E-Bay, cheaper. Dell technical support was useless, couldn't get past first base.
I know the 128MB video card will work, just want to know about the more powerful 256MB card.
Thanks!

Hi hoagie, Your manual HERE says that you have an 305w PSU, you will not have any problems running an 256MB card or even an 512MB graphics card.

I guess his questions are X1300 supply through PCI-E, and it supplies only 25W maximum.
I ran into the same situation that because of this limitation, (normally PCI-E can supply 75W,) so that I cannot use Radeon HD 4670 which is powered through PCI-e only.
