[G4] Is my Radeon 9800 128mb Mac card ok?

[Michael L. Brown]

Did you replace your power supply, when you installed the card. I 
think your power supply is only rated for 220 watts, like my Gigahetz 
Ethernet G-4. Almost all ATI cards more recent than the 9000 
recommend checking the available power before installing. It is one 
of the marginal notes on the OWC web site.
