corsair will be the best choice for you brother
you wont need more then 400watt corsair at this time but for future get 550watt or 650watt corsair (non modular) power supply

^ yes corsair is much better choice
a corsair 400watt is also enough for you
but if you want some upgrades in gpu then 550watt is good

i wana buy hd 4870 1gb,and for this i was looking for a psu ,a PG member is selling a psu 550 watt ,gives 30 amps at a single12V rail,as from above description, it fulfills the amps need of hd4870,BUT the problem is, this psu has only one 6pin connector where as hd needs two 6pin connector ,tell me for the 2nd 6pin connector can i use 6pin converter(that comes with GPU)
I M WORRIED WILL MY SYSTEM OR GPU WILL BE STABLE AND WORKING FINE BY DOING THIS KIND OF 6pin CONNECTIONS

PLZ TELL ME MUST , THANKS
