Hello everyone!

I am considering buying a AMD HD Radeon 7870 (this one preferably: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125418) but I'm not sure if my PSU will handle everything OK.

Current build:
CPU: A8-3850 (not oc'd or anything)
Mobo: ASRock A55M-HVS
RAM: 4GB DDR3 1600Mhz (planning to upgrade to a pair of 4gbs soon)
Current GPU: PowerColor AMD HD Radeon 7750
PSU: Corsair 500W Builder Series
1 fans w/ led (if that's important)
2 fans w/o leds
7200 rpm HDD
DVD-RW drive


I hope that provided enough info.. thanks in advance!
