Just got a XFX 4850 512MB newegg was selling them for $99 so I acted fast and ordered one. Then I was thinking to myself and realized that the PSU I got was for the 4670 I was going to get and I didn't change the PSU and ordered it so here is the one I got http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139008 do you think it will power the 4850 or will I have to RMA it for another one. I know the requirements for a 4850 is 450w or more but the corsair has a good +12V rail on it so I figured I might be OK.

Yea that was my original idea but I was so happy to see the xfx 4850 going for $99 that I didn't even think about it. After I go my Order Confirmation E-Mail I was looking over it and noticed the PSU. I hope It will be OK but at least newegg has a good RMA policy.

Has the psu shipped already? If not you may be able to call them...
 
They said they could not cancel my order because it has already been scanned by the warehouse. I just placed the order about 1:00PM and it is now 6:00PM there is no way that is has already been scanned. I think they are just telling me that because they don't won't to cancel it. I guess I will just wait and hook it up once I get it play some games for a week or so and see how it holds up. I got 30 days to do a RMA right but hopefully I won't have to. I just need this to last 3-6 months.

where did you order it from?
 
I'm sure it will be fine and if not I'll just stick my old one back in and RMA it. I could use both my PSU and use one for the HDD,GPU,ODD and one for the motherboard but that's a lot of trouble to go through.
