I am fixing to upgrade my graphics card to a SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 7850. I'll be spending about $215 for it. I believe the psu I currently have won't be any good for this card from what people have been telling me. I have heard it will work, but I've also heard different. So I am looking for some opinions... My current psu is listed below. If you think I should upgrade it too, could you tell me what you recommend? I'd like to keep the psu as cheap as possible, but I want it to last for a long time of course, that's why I'm upgrading my card so much... The only game I really play is wow so I'd like to be able to play with at least 40fps... I really need to keep my budget under $300 counting the $215 or the card. I'd rather not even spend that much because my budget was originally going to be $200.
Also, when looking at psu's I can't tell how to know if they will fit in my case and if I have the right hookups for them.... so please keep that in mind if you recommend one for me.
