Yes, It's sufficient. Though we'd like to know your whole system config to get a better idea of your total power consumption.

FSP SAGA II 400 is recommended. What other hardware do you have?

Yep. FSP Saga II are very VFM. Get the Saga II 400.

I'll probably use HD 7770 for 6 months. I'm planning to give that card to my relative after 6 months..
So I thought of getting cheapest reliable PSU under 2k.
Corsair CX430 costs 2.8k which is well above my budget.
Considering the above responses I've decided to get FSP SAGA 400..

Get a TAG PSU.. they cheap

FSP SAGA II 400 should be minimum choice. Or Corsair CX430V2 would be optimum choice.

Corsair VS350 is crap, and so is SAGA II 350Watt. Avoid them.

I would suggest you to stay away from FSP. I have submitted my SAGA-II 500 for the 4th time with Aditya IT. But everytime they ship me some repaired PSU which fails within a month or less. And when I asked 'em for a replacement, they say they dont stock FSP anymore so cant provide new Replacement anymore. My PSU is still lying with them ATM.
So, better stick with CX-430v2.

Looks like getting the FSP could be an issue as its no longer stocked, that leaves corsair.

Thanks for sharing feedback about FSP.
I'm always skeptical about FSP & its availability & RMA in INdia, but I can't suggest against it due to lack of feedback about it.
You know there are many members here who will come up with their 'mostly innovative iknowall' idea and start bashing me for not suggesting FSP.

@OP: You got the feedback. You can't look beyond CX430V2.
If it is out of your budget, then simply don't buy HD7770.

Prepare for war

J/K, OP, when FSP came they were the best VFM, but since their distro rolled the ball its no longer a viable option, thanks to saswat23 for his feedback, this gives a solid idea about FSP A.S.S and hence we'll no longer recommend it.

cx430V2 is the lowest possible PSU for 7770 unless you have a i5/i7-3xxx K and OC it

IMO VS-450 would also suffice!

Yes, OP should consider about it if it available at his place and at a lower price than CX430V2 (which it should).
