939 and 8800 ultra?

[21questions]

Hello, i was wondering if you can put a 8800 ultra onto a mobo that supports 939?

i have a amd fx60 on a asus a8n32-delux board. Im running a 7900gtx right now. How much bigger is that card compared?

and what would you say is a good power supply watt to support a ultra? minimum?

I have a GTX in my 939 system (sig)

it all depends if your case is big enough to fit the card, has nothing to do with the mobo.

the card is unGodly huge

Yep, Dunan is right.

Works for me great, just make sure you have a large enough case (I've had both a Antec P180 series and a Coolermaster Cavalier that fit the card, but barely).

I do have a GTX, but from what I know Ultra's are just GTX's that are clocked higher.

Not sure - but the the card is about 10.5 to 11.5 inches long, its VERY long, the biggest video card to date.

What brand is your PSU? Is it old 700W or a newer 700W?

your 700watt psu should be ok, I run my sckt 939 with a shitload of stuff inside and a 8800gtx on a 600watt enermax psu and i have no problems.

Watts don't mean shit for a gaming system if a good majority of it is on the +3.3V and +5V rails.

So basically, what 700W PSU do you have?

i forgot what psu i got but its about a year old.

length wise i have about 2.5 inches left after a 7900gtx you think i will be ok?

nothing else but a soundcard width wise. I'll be ok there.

We wont know if your PSU is ok unless you tell us what it is.

Well just open up your PC and you can see the PSU model there. Also what case do you have?

There's no 700W Powerstream model. Or did you get the wattage wrong? Is this the one you have?:

guess i got the wattage wrong ...

i think i have the 530 watt

 

[Dangman]

You think it's an OCZ 530W? There's no 530W OCZ PSU that I can find on the OCZ website. There's a 520W OCZ PSU but there are different models like PowerStream, Modstream, etc.

Have you actually opened up your PC and found out what model PSU you have?
