Hey there, I know there have been a lot of questions about the Alienware and Upgrading the graphics card, but i haven't seen anyone else ask about the Asus Nvidia GTX 670 Mini:

I would like to know if this card would work inside the Alienware X51 when using the 330w PSU:

I have been looking to upgrade for a while and I know it is possible with a 660 Ti, but for £206 I thought the 670 would be the more powerful option, so if i can use it then i will, but as a bit of a noob about these sorts of things I would like to know if it would be compatible.
The rest of the Specs of My PC are:
Core i5 3450
2x4Gb Ram - Soon to be upgraded to 16GB (2 x 8Gb)
1Tb HDD
and at present the Nvidia GT 545
The PSU is currently the default one Alienware sent with it, which is 200w i believe.
Any help would be mostly appreciated
Thanks!
UPDATE: This site says that it only draws 153W when used, but I'm still unsure if that would work on a 330W PSU with everything else drawing power.
