Need to know your system specs first including your cpu and power supply make and model.

Without this information nobody can give you a good recommendation.

That's a problem, if you can't even remember what you bought, then it's probably generic and won't power a $150 graphics card.

A cheepo 450w psu likely only puts out about 300 real watts, and that's not enough to power much.

So I need to know the make and model of the psu before I can recommend a graphics card.

Antec is good.

Are you in USA?

A 6850 sounds like it would be in your price range.
