The manufacturer always lists the MINIMUM requirements for the use of their
products. Since you do NOT meet these minimum requirements, I think you get
the general idea.

I am about to buy a geforce 8800GTS 320MB card. It says minimum
requirements for the card is 400W and 12V rated at 26A. My power
supply is 400 watts but only rated for 12V at 18A. You think I could
pull that off or should I buy a new PSU?
