Yes, that PSU is WAY too weak.

Also, isn't that mobo a VIA chipset board? If so, it would be wise to get away from VIA if you're going to be using ATI video cards. If you don't have any trouble, you're one of the very lucky ones.

Hi,Morbieson,I don't think you will waste any money on the psu,cause I looked at my manual of my Gecube graphics card & on page3 is the system requirements wich states it needs a 550W power supply or greater(as u can see on the left I have a 500w psu & it works 4 me).Oh,& relating 2 the driver,I already e-mailed "omegadrive" with our graphics card "pci device id' so that there will be support of our cards in his next release of "ati omega drivers"Our cards is not yet supported on the omega driver 3.8.421 release.

I stand corrected on that chipset. This is your board, right?

Asus P5P800

No, your board is not VIA, it's Intel 865PE chipset.

VIA has some problems with AGP controls. So, you're OK in that department.
