always get a higher power psu to avoid the psu working at 100% full load la.
and the extra head room can be used for future upgrade. brows.gif

No lar. 5770 use a lot less power than 4850. 500W True Power should be sufficient.

efficiency has nothing to do with this.... doh.gif
and to cf 2 hd5870,a 600w psu is enough.[ati recommends 600w only,and the y always recommend more than enough aka lots of headroom]
