You're fine. It's one of the lowest power cards out there. It doesn't even need the 6-pin PCIe connector.

Well not sure how old it is, but if it's as old as the review (2003) than you might be getting into issues. Most PSU's will lose about %10 of maximum power supplied each year that you have it, so doing some math (5 yrs old x %10 = %50 maximum loss). This could be a very bad situation for you. I'd recommend getting the PSU below:
$45 shipped! Has 27A on the 12v rails and is >80% efficient!!

Ahh, well you might be okay. Not sure 16A on the 12v rail is going to cut it, but you can give it a try. The 4670 uses the 75w that is allowed per PCI-e slot on the mobo.

I don't reckon it even uses that much. Xbitlabs measured it (under a 3DMark load, which doesn't really mean it's loaded to peak, but a pointer) and they came up with a 47W total.
