first of all, what kind of title is this. use a proper title from next time.

HD6850 will work fine with a proper 500W PSU. Even a efficient 450W PSU will be sufficient to run 6850. Check out Corsair CX500W.

Yes it will. But not if you buy a crappy desi 500 watt psu. :|

Get something like the corsair cx500 like suggested above.
DOn't go for coolermaster either.

P.S:- Learn to post properly.

Even VS-450 and CX-430v2 would suffice.
