ATI X1600 Pro in a Dell Dimension 4600?
can I run an x1600pro in a Dimension 4600 despite having the 250 watt power supply?
I have heard here and other places that they really overstate what is needed and if I dont have to I would rather not since I plan to upgrade the whole system in one year (next Xmas for sure).
Probably with a Dell!
Anyway, just wondering as I am looking at an inexpensive x1600 pro . My Dimension is as follows
2.6 mhz with an 800mhz sidebus (says it can run from 2.6 to 3.6)
1 gig RAM (that is my next upgrade , going to 2 gig )
40 gig harddrive (adding another but not yet, could just replace if it would help with power supply issue rather than adding another)
Thanks!!

as for the 7600GS, do you know of ppl actually using it on the 4550 with success?
the x800 seems to have better throughput, but the 7600GS im looking at has twice the memory, any suggestions which way to go?
thnx!
