PVR-350 Power
octagon:
Does anyone know what the power (wattage) requirements are for the PVR-350? I know they do get hot, so the card uses much more than a network card for example. Also, does it use draw primarily from the 5v buss or both 5v and 12v?
SHS:
PCI bus is 3.3V or 5V only
The problem with 350 it not the power (wattage) but it die size manufactured at 0.25 process
PVR 350 need 25 watts if I recall rigth.
octagon:
So having three of them (along with a Nvidia Video card) would put somewhat of a strain on the power supply. I'm having boot problems (cold boot) while recovery from standby seems OK. It seems to hang toward the end of the boot process; the 3.3V rail is sagging. It did not do this with two PVR-350's but started when I added the third.
SHS:
What do you have rigth now for system spec and size of your power supply
octagon:
Athlon T-bird 1.4G CPU, 1GB (4 x 256M) DDR memory, Nvidia Riva M64 Video Card, 300W Power Supply, Win2kSp4
