guys how much amperage on 12v rail should be enough to run a 8600gt 256mb ddr3?I am confused,I almost bought cooler master 380watts extreme but I just found out that it has 16amps on +12v rail,is it enough?

anybody using this psu or card?

I am using this card with this PSU for last two weeks or so. So far it's running fine. I have not overclocked the card or processor though.
