8800GTS working in Antec Aria SFF(300W PSU!)

Just wanted to share this. I've pleasantly surprised to see my video card upgrade has worked flawlessly !

Ive got a Antec Aria SFF case, which had a AMD x2 3800, 7900GT, 2HDD's and CDROM. On the weekend i upgraded to a MSI NX8800GTS 512 OC.
I've even overclocked it to 745/1900/2200 without dramas. I know the shader clock maxs out before 2000, but i'm really happy with its performace, specially since its a 3 year old system, and i'm back to smooth as frame rates. Was worried about my PSU wich is 300Watts and 18A on the 12V line, but its doing it, even its its not digging it

needs more of a SLI setup.

nah, good job

. I was using the same setup bar the graphics card, which was a Radeon 3850(less power) and barely got it to run smoothly.

AMD2400.
