What is the make and model of you PSU. This is important.

Your system can handle the upgrade no problem. Need to know about the PSU though. 500w is plenty, but many cheaper off brand PSUs only make 70% of stated wattage or less.

Sapphire recommend at least a 500W PSU for that card. You should be ok but some cheap PSU's struggle to provide the power they claim. Can't comment on that without knowing the make of yours though...

Other than that nothing should cause any compatibility problems.

Coolermaster are somewhat known for their lack of quality in lower end power supplies. But once again, without the model of the PSU I can't tell you if it's going to handle your 7850 or not.

Here are some PSU recommendations if you were to buy a replacement. Either one would handle your setup with ease and they are reasonably well priced.

- XFX Pro 550W
- Corsair CX600
- Corsair TX650 - better quality and more power than the CX600, but costs more.
- Super-Flower SF650P14P 650W
