Does anyone know if the 6200 just plugs straight into the AGP slot, or is there power leads etc that need to be plugged in too.

Thanks

First off have you purchased your geforce 6200 agp yet? If not then I would suggest buying a different card. Although the 6200 is a good card it is not ideal for gaming. It was designed to be a slow low end card with new technologies. I would recommend buying a radeon 9600 or 9800 or a geforce5700 or 5900 which are available for around the same price and are much faster and can play games very well at resolutions greater than 800x600. If you need a site that has these items at good prices I would suggest either http://www.newegg.com or http://www.zipzoomfly.com both of these sites are well priced and ZIPZOOMFLY.com even has free 2-day shipping. Although, Newegg.com is much easier to navigate.

Oh yea back to your question. I don't believe the 6200 needs a external power source as it is a low end card and does not require the amperage a card like the 6800 Ultra would require.
