i ahve a gateway gt5674 and i dont know what card i wnat to get for it cause it does not say PCI express-2.0. it says pci express but not 2.0? will this card still run in my comp?|||All PCIe 2.0 cards will work on the older PCIe 1.0/1.1 slots.
You may just have to upgrade your PC's 300W power supply to a 400W unit. The 9800GT graphics card draw up to about 80 watts mainly on +12V rail. Processor, its voltage regulator circuit, fans and drive motors could be consuming up to about 125 watts also on +12V rail.
The +12V rail of your 300W power supply may not be able to fully power the 9800GT set up or the PSU could get severely stressed if it works at all.|||Yes, the XFX 9800gt will fit.
No, it won't run with the 300 watt gateway gt5674 power supply.
Minimum Power Requirements:
9800 GT models
Minimum of a 400 Watt power supply.
(Minimum +12 Volt current rating of 26 amps)
An available 6-pin PCI Express power connector
