Quick graphics card/PSU question - Page 2

Sorry to bump into the conversation. Money isn't an issue, although I would like to go slightly cheap. I'd like to buy a new GB of ram, and a new graphics card, but like I said, I'm clueless. And what's an HD5670?

It's a graphics card. It's on the cheaper side of things without being a steaming pile of trash.

Another question:

If a graphics card needs 400W from the PSU and 28A on a 12V rail, would a 550W PSU with four 12V rails @ 20A, for a total of 45A, be sufficient?

I went ahead and bought another GB of RAM for about $15 that I know will work, so we'll see if it makes my computer faster. I think my graphics card is pretty good already.

Thanks for the advice, guys.
