SilverStone Strider Plus SST-ST50F-P 500W

Hi Guys,

I put together a pc for a m8 on a really tight budget. I got a SilverStone Strider Plus SST-ST50F-P 500W of the members market for him at a good price and it would have been fine for the project I thought I was building 2500k
and a amd 5850 gfx card. However he has instead managed to get his hands on a 580 gtx which is obviously a nicer card, but I worry this psu wont be up to the job of a 2500k @4.5ghz and a 580gtx.

Am I worrying for nothing or do you think this is a disaster waiting to happen?

Feedback much appreciated

ok thanks for the feedback.... My thoughts exactly.

It will be ok for now just surfing the net and media usage. I will tell him not to game on it till he gets a better psu. Or if he does it's at his own risk.
