You would be looking at something more in the realm of this. Sorry if its not what you were looking for but 400watt is not that much. I know you asked will it work. I have had friends try to run their graphics cards recommended at 600 watt minimum and they had like 500watts, sometimes it will boot up for them but then when they go to play a game or put any stress on the card it crashes. I would listen to what is recommended by the manufacturer. All reputable companies should list recommended or minimum Wattage.
