Well that was a pretty easy find. You need a minimum of 600watts. 450 is nowhere near enough. The requirements for the card are always lowered so more people will buy them.

You will ned a 600w or higher psu with 26amps or more on the 12v rail. Stick to brands such as Antec's trio line , Thermaltake's toughpower line , corsair , silverstone or coolermaster.
