Hey, im looking to buy some new parts for my computer at christmas, but im worried about what Watt PSU i will need, i was just wondering what Watt PSU i would need, dont worry about sending links to paged, i just want to know and il open up my PC and look what watt it i at the moment.

The parts i want are the AMD FX 8350 8 core Black edition : http://www.amazon.co.uk/AMD-FD8320FRHKBOX-FX-8320-FX-Se...

And the Sapphire HD Radeon OC GHZ edition : http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sapphire-Graphics-Express-Displ...

A 650W will be good and give you headroom in case you want to get a more powerful card in the future.

For the 7870 the recommendation is 500W with 23amps on the +12v rail. Something like this would be great for your system:

XFX 550w core edition

If you want more headroom as mentioned above, something like this would be great
Antec HCG-620 620W

Both are made by seasonic, arguably the best PSU maker right now.

The max output of your PSU is not enough. I would need your full PC specs.
But if you want something that would definitely work , get either of these
- XFX Core Edition 550 watt
- Seasonic S12 II 520 watt
- FSP Raider Silver 550 watt
- Rosewill Hive 550
