PSU for X1950 Pro (AGP)
I've just had this graphics card delivered. I've understood prior to buying
that it needs a 450watt+ PSU. I've also got one on order - Antec Truepower Trio 550w. The graphic card box states that it need 30amps on 12v rail. I looked on Antec's site and the 12v rail is only 18amps. Can anyone tell me if they are running this graphic card succesfully with one of these PSUs or am I missing something Alan |

Well more than required. |

The combined amperage should be more than enough to power a X1950 Pro. -phil |
