Hum, I'm not so sure about the watt's.
This may help a bit mrpirate.

I didn't think I was using all 350 watts on my PC.
I have the following
P4 850e chipset 2.26GHz
Radeon 9800 pro
4 sticks of 256MB RAMBUS 800mhz ram
1 Hard drive
DVD-Drive
CD-R-RW
Sound Blaster Live no frontbay
2 USB Divices
4 80mm fans
My total watts needed is 337W.
And the video card doesn't take 60 watts; well not yet any ways. I hear an overclock!
The AGP slot only supplies 25 normaly of those watts. If the Radeon 9800 pro was a PCI Express card, it would not need an extra power connection. Since a Radeon 9000 takes 30 watts and doesn't need an extra power connection, I guess the AGP slot can handle more then 25 watts though.
