Thanks Transisto. That looks very useful.

I have another question. Are there any special requirements in terms of a power supply for running the 5970?

2.8 amp AC for a system with a single card.

So a good 300w could do. (highly suggest 400w)

The system I'm putting this in has a 300w power supply. I have no idea if it's "good" or not, the brand on it is "Microstar". As for amps, it has different ratings depending on the voltage. Here's the table on the side of it, which doesn't make a lot of sense to me:

Volts	+3.3v	+5v	+12v	12v
Amps Peak Amps	16A 18A	25A 27A	14A 16A	0.5A 0.5A

If I decide to test the 5970 using this power supply, how can I tell if it's not supplying enough power? Will the PS and/or GPU get hotter than normal? Can I risk damaging the GPU by using this power supply?
