Ya but considering its price its ok , i got 500w power plus for 2.8k where else real power 460w , when i inquired last month at lamington was about 3.85k !! for which you can get a vx450 , a much better deal .^The plus looks good, with 75% efficiency at 45 degrees. But no match to real power pro still.

That being the Power consumption, depending on your other components and future upgrades, you need to choose a power supply. If you’re getting the 5850, then I assume that you wouldn’t be upgrading the GPU at least for a year. So, that being the case a decent 450W or higher power supply should work fine. You should start with the Corsair VX450 and look higher. Anything rated higher than this is fine as long as it delivers what it is rated at. The local PSUs rated at 500W may actually give only 250 or 300W which then becomes a huge problem. So, choose a PSU that is 80PLUS certified.
