But its not at all recommended for HD6950 2GB.In long run the card might give problem due to under-power psu.

500 watt is for stock model.

I think op should opt for Tacens Supero 500W @ 2.5K it's a rebranded FSP EVEREST 85 PLUS 500W. I was studying about this Series what i found is Tacens Supero 500W/600W/700W as same internals & same size resistors. Even 500W can give 650 W at Dual 12 V Rail. 600W/700W products are not worth buying because 500W model is same as 700W.

It can handle 560 Sli easily like a cake. ;)

Lol, AMD recommends higher wattage PSU because they know there are several users who doesn't uses a good efficient PSU. So they have to set it higher, so even an unrated PSU of 500W could handle it. As siimple as that. If they add the 80+ certified word, the recommended 500W will be reduced by a 100 or so. LOL

The amperage mate, it matters. :/ Modern PC's relies mostly on 12V rails for drawing power, so the amperes on the 12V rails matters a lot. (P = V x I).
