Are Austin Power Supplies (for computers) good quality power supplies?

I have a Power Color AGP ATI HD 3850 graphics card and it requires 550 watts. But my power supply is a 450 watt. So is my Austin Power Supply good enough quality to power it?

The HD3850 is very power-efficient-- It draws around 80 watts of power under full load.

I have a Sapphire HD3870 (which is the same GPU as the 3850 but with faster video RAM and clock speed), and I've been running it no problems on a Seasonic S12-330W power supply.

Unless you got some other components in your machine that draws a lot of power (like a RAID-5 array or something), your existing PSU should be good enough for HD3850.
