Hi guys, I have a 400W psu atm, I know this would be pushing it but would this psu be ok if i buy a 5830 and run it off this psu?
In my system i have a athlon 64 4000+, gigabyte ga-ma69vm-s2 mobo,2x 1 gig ddr2 dual chan @ 533mhz, 1 hard drive and thats it.

Like i said i know that its pushing it, but would i be ok running that for a couple of weeks until i can grab a new psu?
What damage (if any) would it likely cause or should i be ok.
The psu is a silver power SP-400P2C 400Watt and everything will be run at stock untill i get a new psu.
Thanks guys
