Ed,
According to ATIs Getting Started installation FAQ here:
http://mirror.ati.com/support/produc...ng_Started.pdf ,
300 Watts is the MINIMUM PSU required so the answer is it may work - but if
it does, you'll be running right at the limit of the PSUs capabilities. This
is never a good idea because it reduces the PSUs expected lifespan - I'd
plan to buy a new PSU long term if not needed right away. Perhaps someone
with the same/similar setup may be able to recall their experience with
this.
