Nice card. Yes it should run everything on max. If you want to get a bigger power supply then try a Thermaltake 750

The card you are getting m8 is good, my m8 was going to buy a 7900gt but he choose a 7800 gtx as its runs faster

I am using a Antec neo Truepower 2.0 480w, this power pack is running

1x AMD 4000 overclocked to 2.993
1x Zalmen flower cooling cpu fan
1x ASUS A8N32-SLI-DELUXE
1x Tsunami thermaltake case
4x 512 Adata ddr500 ram
2x 7900gtx 512
1 x Western digital raptor 74gb
1 x Western digital cavair 160gb
2 x dvd/dvdrw
1 x 2405 Dell 24" monitor

You can have a crappy 550w psu which will run crap all, but a good brand will go alot further.The above i am running only pulls about 390-410 w off my psu
