Default Radeon 9550 Video Card, 8x AGP, 256MB DDR


I have an HP Pavilion 763n with a 124w power supply. I want to install a
9550 video card. Will I need a bigger power supply?

Thanks,

David

i think you don't need a new power supply, because the video card gets
the power from the motherboard.. you don't need extra power supplys

Yes I think you will. I have a 300watt PSU and it won't run my Sapphire
9550. On the Sapphire forums it's been suggested I'll need at least a
400watt PSU.
