Quick question

[chaos555]

I'm buying this card

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=7907802&type=product&id=1149206843568

It stays it needs a 300wat PSU, only problem is I have a 250, but will it run? I know some people who have done this also with no problems, just not sure if I need to change the psu.

First off

Don't buy it from best buy, many other cheaper places

not sure on the PSU though

Also, the computer that I got, the mobo was fried. I tried putting the processor from the newer computer, but when start it up it would go to the loading screen (Right before the Welcome Screen) and it would freeze up, any idea why?

Most likely your motherboard can't handle your processor, and if it can't do that it won't handle the video card along with the processor not to mention with a 250W PSU.

Also, my friend had a 300W PSU and he was running a 6600GS or GT, not sure but what ever, and his computer would continuously reboot from time to time because he didn't have a big enough PSU.

Its only a Dell 4600 mobo, could be the problem. I don't even know if that motherboard can even have a AGP in it, I guess I'll find out soon thought. But the processor is a Intel Pentium 4 3.20, no idea why that wouldn't work..
