How much wattage would I need to power a 5850 & 5870?

Would 750W be good?

a 550 would be sufficent if it was single rail those cards both are rated for less than 200 w (180 and 150 repectivly) if you're interested in spending bitcoins try bitpornium

If the computer came stock with a PSU, I'll just replace it with the one I'm buying? Right?

Bitporium doesn't have that much selection.

I already found a 600W PSU for only $49

600 should be good for what you need. I assumed you wanted to spend bitcoins

I do want to spend bitcoins

But I'll convert it into a giftcard or something.

This one is $30 after MIR. Plus it's 620 CONTINOUS, and it's 80 plus certified. Great value for a miner.

I'm unfamiliar with apevia and would chose the ultra in this case however you can purchase newegg codes at bitegg.net and would rather make a purchase there and would look towards this antec

however if your pc has room for more cards it may be wise to get a larger psu for future expansion

Just so you know, the PSU is the LAST thing you can cheap out on, If you get the "$5 cheaper" PSU, Expect all your shit to blow

Have you consider the Rosewill Green Series RG630-S12 630W? If you have two molex to PCI-Express Connector adapters, this unit would be better.
