I just built a new rig, but brought over my 2 1/2 year old corsair 450w VX and my 8800 gt. Could my PSU handle the upgrade to an HD 5850?

Rig:
Asus M4A785TD-V EVO Motherboard
Phenom II 955
4GB G.Skill DDR3 1600 Ripjaws
Samsung F5 Spinpoint 500GB
Asus 24x DVD Burner
EVGA 8800 GT
Lian-Li Lancool PC-K58
Corsair 450W VX
