Will a computer's power source function without a connection to the motherboard?
The older format, AT, will power up without a motherboard. ATX form factor needs motherboard connection to power up. However, for about $15 you can purchase a PSU tester that plugs onto the psu to allow it to power up without the motherboard. Try: dalco.com, or FRY's etc. Actually, ATX will start without a motherboard, or a 'PSU tester'. The ATX motherboard power connector will have 1 green wire, and several wires of other colours. Find a bit of lose wire, it doesnt need to be very long. Make sure both ends of the wire are stripped. Push one end of the lose wire into the 'hole' that the green wire connects to, then push the other end into any 'hole' that has a black wire leading to it . The PSU should start, and stop when you remove the lose wire. == ==

How can you tell if your psu will run a gfx card and whether the card will be compatible with your motherboard?
If you're at least in the 300W range, you can run a lower-spec GPU fine. Generally speaking as long as your computer motherboard supports PCI Express, they are backwards-compatible (but you may not see the benefits of buying a top-of-the-line GPU for a really old computer). If it does not support PCI Express, you will have a difficult time, but not impossible, to find some old VGA or PCI graphics cards on the cheap somewhere.
