EVGA are usually very good and 500W is more than enough. What exact model is it?

If you have a 8pin (6+2) and 6pin PCI-E power connectors, it should work, its pretty power hungry, but your total system power usage should be around 320w.

Thanks, I put a 470 in there at first to be safe but I'll switch it to the 580.

I put in the 580 and tested it with overwatch, crysis 3, and rise of the tomb raider. No issues from the card at all. So I'm guessing it's all stable.
