Not sure if this is correct so anyways..

AC input 220-204V-,5A,50Hz
DC output 350W

If i'm right I don't hit the needed 500W but I wasn't so good at electronic stuff at school anyways :3

Correct. If you want to go for a 6850, then you'll need to get a more powerful PSU.

Thanks, now is there any brands that are worth looking at? And what power should I go for, I being looking and would around 700 be the best choice?

And yet again seriously sorry for all the questions its like I'm being spoonfed :l

Well I'm planning on doing this for x-mas :p, since Doll money isn't the worlds most fulfilling way of having money ==; anyways the price of the Graphics and PSU is around £240ish

Ah don't worry, a lot of tech sites can be a bit obtuse when it comes to explaining things. They aren't always particularly clear about the basics.

Like I said 750 would probably be ok.

Im running this: http://www.google.co.uk/products/catalo ... CEkQ8wIwBQ

With:
AMD Phenom II X4 @3.2Ghz
4GB RAM
GTX 460

So even 500 will suffice but I will need to be upgrading as well.

Thanks for all the help then guys (: much obliged for it. One other thing if I was to buy a new case would I need to search for a particle one or is it pretty much any case will fit anything? I know you get different sizes of cases etc.
