Last week i created a thread about video card recommendation (http://slickdeals.net/forums/showthread.php?sduid=116861&t=2398323). Today i saw a PowerEdge T110 on sale for like $350 shipped. I looked at the server specs (http://www.dell.com/us/en/enterprise/servers/poweredge-t110/pd.aspx?refid=poweredge-t110&cs=555&s=biz) and it does say 1 of thePCIe slots is x16. Also is the PSU large enough to handle the video card? Nevermind i saw the standard psu is 305 watt

4 PCIe G2 slots:
Two x8 slot, (one with x16 connector)
One x4 slot (with x8 connector)
One x1 slot


So i just wanted to make sure if i chose to say get an ATI 5770 HD video card that had dual DVI and 1 HDMI output it would work with this rig.

I mean for this price it is a pretty decent deal for what my intentions are especially cause i have an OS to install and HDD's to put in.

if these are shipping with the dual-rail version of the 305w power supply.. it can probably handle a HD5670 w/ a celeron, pentium or i3 cpu option (73w tdp), or a HD5570 with the xeon (95w tdp) or multiple hard drives. nothing that needs a dedicated PCIe power. i run an old dimension desktop with dell's dual rail 305w power supply. it has a 50w (under load) video card, an 89w cpu, 4 dimms, 1 optical and 2 hdd (1 single platter 500gb 7200rpm + 1 5400rpm 'green'), original chassis fan up front (the big cpu fan) + 1 80mm added in it.... i wouldn't push it any further than that.
