Hey everyone, this is my first real post here at CAG (I'm usually confined to the trading and deals board), but I was hoping I could get some advice for a PC purchase. I found a good deal on a Shuttle XPC SB51G (2.4Ghz P4, 1 gig of RAM, 120gb HD). Now, I want to do some basic gaming on this thing, though nothing huge. The problem is that it only comes with an AGP 4x slot and a 200w power supply. I know that just about any AGP card today works with both 4x and 8x so that isn't really the problem. The problem is the 200watts. I was wondering if I could get some video card recommendations that could still run on the small power supply. Thanks in advance for the help!
 
I ran an 9600XT on a small power supply and didn't have problems.

As long as you're not adding a bunch of PCI cards and hard drives, you should be ok. Hard drives are big power hogs...
