Your GPU only requires 450watts so your PSU is kind of overkill. Change that get 4GB of DDR3 and look into getting a 5770 it requires 450watts too and it's DX11

i cant afford a 5770 right now. or 4g of ram i will get that l8r. I'm going to wait for the 300 geforce series to came out and see what there like, if i don't like them i will get a nice 200 series, or a nice ATI.

will my PSU work okay with the video card?

if you cant afford a 5770 how about a 5670? they are still good, i'd say about the performance of a 4850. the 5770 is about 30% better than that though.

^ They should....7 supports everything Vista supports, and then some. It also has a very good XP compatibility mode.

Oh? I thought they were about on the same bar as the 4670...?

It is this cutthroat ~$100 environment where the Radeon HD 5670 will be forced to sink or swim at $99. Here it will have to compete against the similarly-performing $80 GeForce 9600 GT, the slightly-faster $95 GeForce 9800 GT, the clearly-superior $110 Radeon HD 4770, and the vastly more attractive $110 Radeon HD 4850 / GeForce GTS 250. Purely from a performance standpoint, it would be madness to buy the Radeon HD 5670 instead of spending a couple dollars more for the Radeon HD 4850 or GeForce GTS 250. DirectX 11 isn't much of an issue here. From what we've seen so far in our DiRT 2 results, the performance hit is too large to bear for the new Radeon HD 5670. Granted this is only one DirectX 11 title, but it certainly sets the stage.
