I'm getting a graphics card for my bday soon and i don't know which one to choose from a few.
I have only a 550w PSU but the minimum for a GTX 260 requires 500w.

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showprodu ... =GX-132-OK

I'm open for suggestions but if you post a link please make sure they atleast ship to the uk and are the equivalent of under £160.
Thanks

DON'T USE OVERCLOCKERS UK! They suck hairy ass.

and don't worry about the PSU, manufactures put the minimum specs way higher than they should be. My ATI HD5770 says minimum 450W PSU, I have a 375W PSU and it's working fine, with two hard drives.

The amps on the 12V line and more important than the watts of the PSU really, but I guess you should meet the minimum on everything to be safe.
