for its price range, its the best card there is
go for the 512Mb card coz there is no performance difference b/w the two so might as well spend less

FSP saga ii 400w is the min. req. u can get for 2k
To be future proof,
Corsair cx400 - 2.6k(can power upto 5770 or gtx 460 768mb)
or
vx450 - 3.5k(can power upto 560ti or 6950 2gb)

5670 is a nice card for a nice price tag. Get a 400W PSU or a 500W (if u want to crossfire in future if ur motherboard supports)

I'm using it with a 400W PSU

cx400/FSP 500 is enough for 5670
and yes, for the price range 5670 is a winner!!
