like around 80 watts for just that

The card won't draw much power....

 

A decent 400+ Watt will do you well...

 

If you are buying a new one however, I would suggest you get something in the 600-750 range to allow for upgrades in the future.

I'd say pretty a 300 watt power supply is plenty,though do to a lack of good 300 watts I'd go for a 400-650 watt unit.

I have run a 6670 on a 250W PSU.  That being said I'd go for 300-400W for efficiency reasons and future usefulness.  Plus, it's hard to get a good quality power supply below that anyway.
