Im running a OCZ 520 watts PS.

I have 6 hard drives, a AMD 3800+, 2 DVD Drives, a Asus X800 video card.


I want to upgrade my Video card to something made in 2007, so it looks like i may have to buy a new power supply?

it saddens me because this power supply has been working flawlessly, but im not sure it could take the strain of a video card that needs a extra power lead ran to it

( the lead i was looking at for this video card appears to take 2 seperate inputs...)

So will i need to upgrade? feels like a waste of a good higher powered PS...
 
If it's the Powerstream series, then you should be fine with a single 8800gtx. If it's just a modstream, I'd pick up something that would handle it for sure.
