XFX Geforce 6600GT 128MB GDDR3 AGP 4X/8X Video Card

RE: XFX Geforce 6600GT 128MB GDDR3 AGP 4X/8X Video Card

Am I crazy thinking I can put this card in my system? I am upgrading from an historic geforce3 ti500 (I love this old card)

My system (Yes,.. its a Dell)
Dell Dimension 8200
Intel P4 - 1.9 Ghz
1GB PC 800 NON-ECC RDRAM
20.1" Dell Ultra sharp 2000FP LCD monitor (Digital)
250W MAX Power supply (I am upgrading to a 450w--its on order)

I really just want a good new card that will support 2 DVI connections and is of equal quality to the ti500. Can I do this?

Thanks!!

well, what power supply is your dell using?

That's about the only thing I can think of that will hold it back.
