I got this pc with a PSU (FSP350-40EMDN) I don't know if it can support MSI hd6850 cyclone.
My CPU is the AMD A10-7800 (3,5GhZ)

No. that PSU actually isn't bad. It's a Sparkle unit (which means it's made by FSP). while they're not pretty and no frills, they're stable and deliver voltage with small fluctuations. It will support your system with that card without issue.

no reviews on that particular unit, but here's a similar model's review (except for the noisy 80mm on the sparkle)

Quilciri, Thank you. But I don't know if I still have Cable on it to put to my GPU.

the 6850 draws a little over 100w under load, so it only needs another 25w or so over what it can draw from the motherboard, which your 5v rails can cover easily.

Okay that's good but the review you send says that one has a 6 pin GPU cable I can't really find my GPU cable on the Power supply I have :/ 
I'm still new in this computer building so I might be looking wrong way.

I said the one in the review is a similar model, not the same one. You can use the molex-to-6 pin adapter I linked.

Okay thank you guys. Now I only need to figure out how to add such cable :p 
But I got some time before that because cable don't get sended that quickly.

Real quick. If anyone finds a tutorial on how to add a new wire to the PSU then it could be useful.
