Default Can you run the 8800 GT with 256 gddr3 ram with 300 watts?

I mean it would be limiting the video card but I heard people ran with it like that before.

We would need to see your other components as well.

I recommend a 600W as well. Not too expensive for the good ones, and you can find some really cheap acceptable ones.

I'm running my 8800GT on a 500W PSU. 300W with a 8800GT won't work.
