I think the GTX 460 requires two 6-pin connectors. [editline]6th June 2011[/editline] [url]http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817341031[/url] And then get a bit more money.

Budget is $70 CAD Im thinking of getting the XFX Core Edition PRO550W [url]http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817207013[/url] Should be more than enough power?
XFX is good, I can't find anything better right now, as there's a thunderstorm coming my way.
The XFX PSU looks pretty good, there are some comparable Corsair PSUs in that price range too. (With higher wattages) [url]http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139004[/url] which is honestly way more than you need, but it's a good psu for a really nice price, just sayin
