Question:

what are the power requirments of 7950gt graphics card?

what wattage do you need, how many power cables going into the graphics card and what type etc

Answer:

The psu in your pc will need to be supplying between 450 and 500 watts.
400-500 watts will be fine. I ran mine on a 430 watt antec for about 18 months just fine. FYI - it did run fine on a generic 350 watt PSU for a couple weeks also. You will be fine with 34 amps or more on your 12 volt rail(s). You need 1, 6-pin, PCI-E power cable, or an adapter that comes with most cards to convert 2, 4-pin cables to 1, 6-pin cable.
