In the interest of full disclosure - I am running a Sapphire Radeon 9800
Pro w/128 meg. onboard memory.
I've been reviewing the Sapphire site forums and most users do recommend
a larger power supply.  If it's working for you, great :)  If you start
having problems with random shutdowns and the like, you may want to keep
the ps in mind.
