Yes, your psu should be plenty for that card.

what is your exact cpu? your PSU should have no problem to power up the card. also add another 2GB of RAM if you can.

Why are you buying last generation stuff?

Well if you can buy it cheap then no problem.
I bought 2 Sapphire 5850 xtreme for US$130 now in Crossfire.

What i mean is cheap is that it is almost half the price of a 6950.

Nice that setup should pwn BF3 at normal resolution.
