I own a Lenovo K410 that came with a AMD Radeon HD 7570 (a rebranded HD 6570 I believe).

I would like to upgrade to a graphics card that will drive my 3x 1600x1200 monitors while staying within the power capacity of my current PSU.

I’m looking to buy a Sapphire HD 7770 Flex (http://bit.ly/1GYwT6g).

According to the system reqs it needs a 450W PSU, which seems to fit my current PSU but before I end up blowing some transistors I would like your opinion. Will my current PSU be able to cope?

I’m running an i3 @ 3.30GHz (i3-3220, Ivy Bridge) so I do believe it’s not a particularly power hungry setup.

Thoughts?
