Hooking the 9800 Pro up to PSU

I had asked another question recently about hooking up too much onto one power cable lead. This is what it looks like now.

First Power Cable:
  • DVD-ROM Drive
  • Floppy Disk Drive
  • 2 Fans
Second Power Cable:
  • Hard Disk Drive
  • Temperature Monitor
  • 2 Fans
But I totally forgot about my Radeon 9800 Pro connecting up to the PSU. So, now I'm planning to put it onto the second power cable lead. Would this be okay? Is there a better way to do it? The PSU is a 350-watt Turbolink.

U should be fine putting it on either one of the 2. I dont think th etemp monitor or the floppy would pull to much power. I have a turbolink 420 watt PSU and on 1 of my power cables I have cd-rom, dvd-rom, hd, and fan. On my Second one I have hd, 4 fans, and a radeon 9500 PRO.

You could move the temp monitor to teh first 1 and put the 9800 on the second.
