Here's my current config:

Proccy:AMD 4400+ X2

Mobo: Asus M3A78-CM

RAM: Corsair XMS 800Mhz 2GB x2

Sound Card:Asus Xonar DX

PSU: Cooler Master Real Power 450W. This one:

Cooler Master - Ultimate provider of Computer Chassis | Cooler | Power Supply

Can this PSU support the HD 4870? I know the CPU will bottleneck the card but I am planning to upgrade to a Phenom later. My question is,for now can the PSU handle the rig?

I will upgrade to a bigger PSU later when I get the Phenom.:)
 
It will handle fine, Specs look similar to Corsair VX 450, lAnishl is running Quad @ 4GHz+4870+blah blah on VX450.

Will upgrade to a Phenom later when I get the moolah.:p
For now the 4870 will have to do.In any case I am upgrading from an X1800,so the difference should be huge.
