I got a Radeon 9700 card off Ebay and it did not ship with the power supply.
Is there somewhere I can buy a replacement cable?

My roomate had a cable for me. But my Computer Power Supply is only 250W and I need a 300W to power it so I guess I have to buy a new power supply.

oh well.

Yeah, the Radeon eats some power, but it's well worth it. A 250W alim is a little tight anyway, if you use some added peripherals.

Having never bought a power supply, I am looking at a 300W supply that costs about $40.
Are most supplies all the same? Should I concider bumping to a 350W for a few more bucks?

As long as you're upgrading anyway, yes.
