Hello

I will be building a pc for a friend in the next few days and decided after ordering the parts that using one of my old Radeon HD 4850's would be better than the integrated Intel graphics.
My issue is that the requirements for the 4850 recommend a minimum 450W power supply with a 30amp rail, but the power supply i bought is a 430W although it does have a 32amp rail.

Will the power supply be sufficient for the added graphics card or should i just stick with the Intel HD graphics for now?

Thanks.
