hey guys. i am looking for a new video card and wanted to get the card in the link below.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130382
my question is do u think my cooler master 600 watt power supply can handle it.
also this card is ddr3.
my motherboard is an asus p5n-d.
it is ddr2 but i was told that this card will still run great on my motherboard.
so basically i just wanna know if this card will work on my pc without overheating the power supply unit.
ty for the help guys.

p.s. if u have suggestions for another video card for under 200 $ that would run as good as that please pst a link....plz no ati tho

Yes, 600W is enough to power a 9800GT, but don't forget about the amperage on the +12V Rails of the PSU.
