Alot of GB you have on that hard drive =P Anyways, 550 SHOULD work, it may be a little stressed, so make sure it stays cool.

Altough, I did research on your card, it is recomended that you have a 600 w psu

this one is a GeForce (not sure if you like them), and it requires less power, with more performence then the 4870 HD

I never really liked ATI Radeon, are their cards good? Im more of an Geforce kinda guy =P
