Hi,
i'll get straight into it and explain my problem.
i am planning on getting a new graphics card link to the graphics card:

http://www.msy.com.au/product.jsp?productId=6995

And it does not say it's Spefications for it's PSU.
so i've gone on a gut feeling and looked up a new PSU, link to the PSU:

http://www.msy.com.au/product.jsp?productId=7002

i looked up a new one because my old one is a 550watt PSU and this graphics card and all the other new features in my computer will need more power, so i looked at a higher watt PSU.

O.K now what i need to know, will this psu unit i looked up be compattible, and do i need to get a new PSU in the first place, i ask this because the graphics card doesn't seem to have a recommended watt in the PSU.

Thanks for your Time. :D
(if you couldn't understand anything that i wrote please tell me, and please ask the questions you need)
 
the 12v amps are more important than wattage. that card shouldnt use more than 20A. add another 20 for a CPU and rest of components, to be on the safe side. if your PSU has about 40A on the 12v your fine.
