I have been running the 250w version for the past year, and it is currently powering my HD4870 @830/1050 without any problems.

that's pretty cool!!

but for what the one from this thread is worth, i'd rather buy a newer PSU and resell the old one... probably end up costing the same difference.

Wow man...sorry about your luck with the 2900s and the PSU stuff.

Were you running both cards off of this?
