Thanks for the reps, both of you!

It's a bit surprising how little some cards need - but a lot of people do run cards on generic/weak power supplies, and most aren't exploding.

I know someone that runs an x850XT PE on a 300w PSU - crazy!

It's funny how at first, there were many reliable low-watt PSUs, then there was a rush for companies to pass 500 watts(most of it on the +5V/+3.3V rails ), and now we're back to power supplies with strong +12V rails, for how many watts they actually deliver.

I spot a pattern!...I wonder if soon we'll have a wave of 1000w PSUs with weak +12V rails?

That Celeron probably eats over half the watts that power supply provides!

Woot. 66W for me!. I love my card. I still can't find a better one for the price after 5 months.

Don't just put that the graphs are updated, put the date they were updated otherwise it is meaningless to us that it's updated. Otherwise, good find!
