• Installation software requires CD-ROM drive
• Interactive Program guide requires Internet connection for listing updates
• Power supply of 400 (and up) watt is highly recommended for system stability

Judging by the above dxdiag output, and the graphics card you've just bought, and my personal preference for Enermax (especially with AMD chips), I'd say the following would be a decent power-supply (since it also supports SLi, for future expansion, if you wanted to spend more money):
