PSU and GPU Advice Needed

Soon I will be buying a new graphics card, the XFX Radeon HD 6870 -

This card needs at least a 500 Watt PSU, I have a 600 Watt Unit -

So I was just wondering whether or not that PSU will be able to power that card without any problems, it is an SLI ready PSU so I assume powering one card from it should be fine but any advice would be a great help.

Thanks in advance,
Tomskar
 
Hmm, so far I have had no problems with it, but it hasn't really been powering much in terms of graphics so I will have to wait and see (Currently have a HD5450). Good to know it has the required specs though and Thank you for your reply Claptonman :)
 
+1 to Claptonman. Whenever there is the word "value" in a PSU name/brand it makes you wonder.
