That's true, but the ring is evil, so it would seem to me that aside from the amount of power it would take to weild the ring in the first place it would take a lot more to use it to do good without it either turning bad or corrupting the weilder (if that's even possible). Gandalf knows this so he doesn't try, I don't think that necessarily means he is less powerful.
