New psu

i am planing to buy the grahic card hd 4870 or 4850 with power requrement of 500w so i will need a new psu. after some reasearch i heard how some psu boast 1000w which in reality only offer like 600-700w max. so i was wonder if i bought a Corsair 400w will it be enough power the grahic card?(BTW my monitor and speaker are powered seperately from the pc so iguess it help a little)

if not whats the cheapest psu i can get?

Antec and Corsair are both solid brands. They also all feature full-range active PFC, so assuming you have a good cord to use for your outlets, they will run on 240V even if you bought versions that came with a USA power cord.
