Both of these cards should be AGP 1.0/2.0 spec compliant. 1.5v across
the AGP bus.

thanks for the response.

I was looking more for a watts total

The reason is I have a tyan 2460 dualie with past spec cpus and
it is not recommended to run with a heavy draw video card.

Already doing it with the ti4200 so I'm hoping that the 9600xt
draws the same or less...

If I new the watts, or amps for that matter, I would know if
I'm going to stress my system more...do have a 550 enermax

cheers

I remember reading that a 4200 draws 12 watts and a 4600 draws 15 watts.

I think it was a Heatsink mfg advertisement.

Don't worry about it...

I've run dual CPU with 5-drive RAID-5 with 15,000 RPM sci drives, 3
NICS on 300watts...

Oh... and a GF-5900-128 on 225watt PSU.
