Hi all... I've got a new x1950 Pro 512MB AGP coming in the mail. I've got an Antec True Power 480 power supply (the original).
I saw this quote:
"That card should be working off a unit with 30a+ on the 12v rail and if you're getting a dual railed unit, then both rails need to be rated at 22a each ( or better ) for a combined continuous/sustained 30a+ to avoid potential power issues."
My PSU:
http://www.antec.com/specs/trueblue480_spe_EU.html
+5V = 38A
-5V = 0.5A
+12V = 28A
-12V = 1.0A
+3.3V = 30A
+5V = 2A
It appears my MAX is 28a, not the required 30. What are the implications? Will this be good enough?
Note: This is on a Dell 8300.
