If something goes wrong with your psu, all your components are at risk. So better get a proper one.

Personal Build Project "Rained-On"

helped building up the CPU Overclocking Database and GPU Overclocking Database, check them out ;)

I've tried a cheap'ol PSU 550W on my rig, it wasn't enough. Then i put a corsair CX430 and it worked flawlessly. My card is equivallent to yours. Get my point? :D

Moral of the story : Don't buy cheap PSUs.

Then you must've had a very bad PSU, because I was running a 4890 just fine on a crappy 500*W PSU

 

*On the label, it says wattage "Shall not exceed 431.5W"
