Thinking of buying a HIS Radeon HD 6850 1 GB

[dorfius]

I have AMD 64 x2 5000+ 2gigs of ram and a logisys p550a, i believe its 550 watts psu although its say "total power = 400 watts but under it, it says the max load is 550" i would like to get a HIS Radeon HD 6850 1 GB but im not sure my psu is good enough.

if anyone could help me here it would be much appreciated, TIA.

You'll be fine. Your cpu is a bit on the slow side though so you might find you're just as well off with a less powerful card, maybe a 6670 or 6770.
