He can get another one through sapphire. I'll figure out a way to get him a new one if that doesn't work out.

If sapphire doesn't work out, I'll have him send the card to newegg.

The x1950PRO is for my home rig. The 8800GTS is my college rig. The home rig is as follows:

X2 3600+ @ 2.69GHz (until I get better cooling)
2 Gigs Dominator 1066C5
MSI X1950PRO 512
DFI Infinity Ultra II M2

I'm using the home rig right now because I am home...and the college rig is down.

Might I scream OVERKILL! 600W is more than enough these days...

Not for a quad FX system...which I don't have. Those things can suck down well over 500w. Stick two 2900XTs in there...and 600w PSU goes down the drain. Well...I don't have those either.

I should have went for a NEOHE 430W.. my system uses 295W with one of those Kill a watt thingies :(

I need to get one too. I really want to know what this 2900 draws. Wouldn't mind doing a back to back comparison between the old X1800 and the 2900.
