Will it work on my htpc?

Hi I just recently purchase a HP DC7700 small form factor, and it has a 240w psu rated 12v@ 19.0a. However I have a 8600gt lying around in my house and I really want to view HD videos at my restaurant. So Is this psu enough for the graphics card?

HP DC7700 small form factor specs
Intel core 2 duo E6600 @ 1.86ghz
2gb ddr2 533mhz
WD 320gb 7200rpm sata
no disc drive

I highly doubt it.

8xxx series cards require a lot of power.

Which graphic card would work then?

240w with 19.0 A.

I'd say a 5570 should run with absolutely no problems, and will be more than enough for Video playback!

Here's a dependable one:
