What PSU will handle this?

SAPPHIRE 100297L Radeon HD 5830 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Pro...6814102878

1tb - 2tb 7400 HDD

Looking to save some $$$ as I'm already over my original budget. Still need a case too!
 
Any quality PSU over 400-450 watts will be fine.

Personally, I prefer a PSU that's a bit larger than the system requires, and I'd get one in the 650 watt range, but that's just my preferences.

I do recommend staying with a PSU from one of the following:

Corsair
Antec
XFX
Seasonic.
(many of those are built by Seasonic, and re-badged)

Here are some good units to consider:

CORSAIR Builder Series CX430

Antec EarthWatts Green EA-430D

SeaSonic S12II 430B

XFX Core Edition PRO450W

XFX Core Edition PRO550W

There are many, many more worth your consideration.

Remember this...the PSU is the heart of your computer system. DO NOT try to scrimp on this very important component. A BAD PSU may only fail to properly power your system, OR, it MIGHT die a painful death...and take out many of your other components when it goes.
 
A good choice as well but you don't actually need 650W for adding HDD or RAM. A GPU might need it but most mid range cards will do just fine with a 500W PSU.
 
Some of the reviews complain about a weird clicking sound . . definitely don't wanna deal with that. I'm gonna keep poking around for one.
