I have an HP m8417c
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/...cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN#N308
full specs shown above.
Basically, I am looking for a video card to go along with this computer and most of the cards I want have a minimum requirement of a 400watt power supply. Sadly, I only have a 350 watt power supply and was wondering what would happen if I were to get one of these cards. It is a pretty well setup computer and with a nice video card it should suit me well for games. I am looking at something like this...

This will be the first time I have done an install of an aftermarket video card, so any tips you can offer will be appreciated.
