I got a Nvidia GeForce FX5200 PCI 128MB video card for nothing! I am planning on installing it in my PC (specs below) and replacing the MX4000. My only concern is the cooling fan built on the card may be the "straw that broke the camel's back" on my powersupply that is already running alot of extras! I will not remove either of my 80mm cooling fans because they are placed in such a way for MAXIMUM cooling! Should I just stick it in and see what happens?

Try this website at http://www.jscustompcs.com/power_supply/. It is a power-supply calculator. Put in all the information about your system and it will let you know the recommend PSU.
