The gpu alone requires 450 watts and 26 amps. The one you linked to has only 400 watts and 25 amps. Get this corsair with some headroom.

I would recommend going with the 600 watt psu.

there is no way that GPU uses 450w.the link below says it idles @ 139w and load @ 248w, and i think thats system and all(might be just GPU).but still leaves me with 152w. - the 95w CPU ill have 59w for hdd's/dvd/fans.i mean it will be cutting it close but it will work,right?
