HIS HD 6770 power requirements

[mrcrazyshoes]

Hi, I want to buy a HIS Radeon HD 6770 1GB 128-bit gpu, but the power requirement on it says its 450 watt. I have a CORSAIR Builder Series CX430 V2 PSU. Will this be sufficient? The rest of my specs are:

Case:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811815006

Hard Drive:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822152185

Motherboard:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813138283

PSU:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139026

RAM:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820161279

CPU:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819103872 (unlocked to x4)

Fans: one for the CPU, one for the PSU, and one 80mm in the case

It's close. But being a Corsair PSU you'd probably be okay.

If you can up it to a 500w to be safe.

ok thanks! i did all the calculations that the sticky on this forum said and i had 50 watts or so to spare so i think ill be fine, but i wont try any overclocking or anything just to be safe.
