WHAT KIND OF POWER SUPPLY DO YOU NEED FOR THE 9600?
wow googlegear is good, that p42.0 is over $600 in us dollars while googlegear has it only for $439.00 and it comes with the fan and heatsink. hey also what i noticed instead of getting a coolermaster fan above you can get a thermotake dragon orb(still cheaper than 292.

As the great man said; well anything above 300 is generally sufficient for computer with a standard setup i.e. no more than 3 fans and 1 hdd 2 drives etc. And yes it is likely to be faster than your 8500 provided your cpu is fast enough to scale up to its performance so if you had a 2gz cpu for example it would now much faster with the 9600 now than if you had a 500mgz cpu. Basically it is more than proportionally scaled. There will be a base level increase in the performance in both cases.
And er quit using the fuc.king caps it makes it harder to read

I am using a P4 2.8 800 w/hp, 512mb Mushkin Black level 3200, ATI Radeon 9600 Pro 128, Audigy 2, onboard lan etc. I have random restarts which I think may be due to a generic 300 watt power supply, I'm not sure exactly, but I was wondering the same thing. I will try a 450 watt Enermax, and see if it helps. Only 1 case fan too, but it must be the dang Radeon doing it. Even though it's a .13 part, you still gotta wonder why the 9700 and 9500 etc. have the extra power connecter and the 9600 does not...
Maybe because the 9700/9500 are more powerful and need more power :P
