That Power Supply is a miracle worker.

I have a 600W PSU, and it can handle my pc fine, so that's the wattage I would go for.

Also, my Specs are;

Windows 7 Home Premium x64
9500GTX Overclocked @ 9800GTX Speeds
600W PSU
4GB DDR2 RAM
Gigabyte M52L-S3P Motherboard
500GB HDD
AMD Athlon Quad Core @ 2.9Ghz
2x1500RPM Case fans

Oh yeah. Custom built my yours truely.

Michael linked me to this PSU a few days (weeks?) ago. I'll probably be getting it.

I just hope it fits in my case. xD

You could go for one of these off ebay instead, theres one for the same price buy it now but in gold:

Or you could go for the 700w, they have said it will work with both your current graphics cards and also the 5770:

I would save myself a few quid and get that second one myself and at least you can hold it to them if it doesnt power the system including your graphics card if you go for the 5770

I can't buy it now because I don't have enough money.

Well, tell a lie, I have over £1000, but I can't keep taking cash out my bank account.

Hmm, not sure which to go for really. Second one is cheaper but it's also got a slightly smaller wattage. I doubt 50w less would be much different anyway, but I'm just bearing in mind that I will need to upgrade again eventually and I don't want to have to keep replacing things. Still, if 700w does me fine for the next few years then I'll be happy to get it. I'll look into it closer to purchasing time.

Yeah, well, unfortunately I don't think I'll be winning the lottery any time soon. xD

It's my destiny to win the lottery.
