It has enough watts, but in order to be certain we need to know how many amps in puts out on the +12v rail. You can usually find this information on the sticker attached to the PSU. You need a minimum of 20A. Most 500W psu's put out well past this amount so you should be fine. If you can't find this information on your PSU, give us the make/model and I or someone else will help you find the information if we can.

You also should confirm that the PSU has a PCI-E connector to attach to the GPU.

Ok thanks for your replies! I Have had a look at the PSU and it looks like this: http://imgur.com/5hkzC2D

If the card requires a 20amp +12V connector, you should buy a twin molex to PCI-e connector for it. Your PSU has twin 14amp +12V rails on it. (according to your picture) Just one rail does not have the required 20amps needed for your card.
The connecter that I speak of has two molex connectors on one end and a single PCI-E connector on the other. (I put a link for a picture at the bottom of this post)

Plug one of those molex connector into ~each~ 12V rail, and you'll have 28amps at the other (PCI-E) end. More than enough for that card.

Unfortunately, the picture doesn't really tell me how many total amps that PSU is putting out (on the +12v rails). I'd need to know how many watts it is putting out on the +12v rails but the sticker doesn't say. I hate it when PSU companies leave this information out, it's kind of shady like they are hiding something.

And for your other question, yes, it is a 6pin connector required.

If I had to guess, I'd say you are probably ok.
