but on the other hand, CM Extreme Power is faulty & most digitians recommend to skip it. VX450W should run the card. its not that power hungry. also i think it is for non 80+ certified PSUs. still to be safe a Corsair VX550W looks another choice but at a added premium of 1.3k.
let OP reply first what his friends needs the PC for.

Man, @ 50k budget, AMD is the best solution. Go with Sam's suggestion. And at Video editing AMD is also very good (may be not as good as Core i7 but better than most of the Core 2 Quad series processors).
In Video encoding obviously the extra L3 cache present in Phenom II series processors will help. So for this extend your budget a little (say 1.5k) and go for a Phenom II 925 @ 6.5 - 6.7k.
for the time being, drop the CPU cooler and go for APC 600W UPS @ 1.9k

woops. the config i gave is for gaming mainly. video editing wil need changes. well Cilus already replied what needs to be changed. change the proccy, get a lower power video card & the PC ready for video editing cum gaming.
& yes if he doubts AMD proccy got heat problem, its long gone & the cooler on Phenom II X4 965BE far superior to all other stock coolers. far far better than Intel's vanilla :glass-grin: coolers (exception of i7 980X.)

for video editing get a gpu with higher memory as you will be buffering your ram fully...

also guys if cooler master makes such **** PSU's why do people buy them? personally i like the corsair series but nothing's wrong with cooler master
---------- Post added at 09:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:38 AM ----------
also sam the rig you suggested the minimum wattage was 340w ... the corsair 450 can do max 360w under load so he needs atleast 550 / 620....

Cooler Master's other series of PSU's are good but that extreme series should be taken away from the market .....Even i was about to take that PSU but later saw on some other forum about how bad it was and then i settled for a CM Silent Pro and i am happy with it...
Corsair's PSU's are much better though.....

i think Sid already gave the answer.
people will buy anything if its under there budget.....
+1. that the point. ppls buy what they have under their budget & many ppls think "oh its Cooler Master. its gonna be good". fit a GTX260 to a Extreme Power & both go BOOM.
hahaha. true.
