.. and that was a darned good card too Ben (ATI9700pro)!! It kicked the 6600GT I had to death and ran (IMHO) as well as the Sapphire x700.. until it failed one sad day

Am soon to be rejoining the ranks of the great unwashed (ATI) users again with a Sapphire HD2900XT

I hope it'll perform as good as it looks
Tks for the HU Tony. Let us know how you get on as I'll be targetting this one for the 2900 ;-)

Hi Chris
It's a 525w (peak) Hyper which I hope will be enough

Should be fine Dave. Mine is a 580 but its runing all those SCSI drives (6 of them) and my 8800, so 525 should be plenty.
