says on page 400w psu required , i've read people running on 350w , having no problems.
psu enermax eg301-vb 300w , it's not low power system, have tons of led fans , multiple hd's , cd drives.
im looking experts go ahead before spend $109 on video card.
don't wanna spend find out can't power it!
thanks!

it should work, on 300watts (i can find real power consumption tests using 4650 use far less power people guess). 1 of reasons why '400 watts+' because of 'yum cha' power supplies. know, teh horrid things in $40 cases, change sticker on power supplies every few years reflect current power supply sizes. decent brand 300watt going better psu 'eagle star brand' 400 watt sticker on it.
honestly.....i wouldnt risk it. $100+ on agp card excessive. quite old psu, , years dont them. lots of hdds , cd/dvd drives push power consumption. besides that, there isnt point getting newish card agp system, imo anyway.
