X1900xt Power requirements?
I'm not dead certain, but if this is your supply:
http://www.enermaxusa.com/catalog/pr...products_id=81 it is rated at 20A on each of its two 12V rails. That ought to be good for a single X1900XT graphics card. You might need a more powerful supply for two cards on a Crossfire mainboard. As you can only use a single ATI card on your nVidia mainboard, you should be fine. Address scrambled.
