Hey, Welcome to OCN
you should really fill out your system specs here it will help other people help you with questions for example, someone might want to see what the rest of your computer looks like as far as power consumption, to see if there was enough left for a 4850

i think if he doesn't already overclock anything and he doesn't have a beastly setup he could run this fine
it's the AMPs on the 12v rail that are important...think about ati's position....they have to reccommend something that WILL work no matter what, there are a lot of junky PSU's out there

I wouldn't try it. Get a good 500w psu and it should be able to handle it.

It probably just wouldn't load properly. I wouldn't try it though, sparks might fly, but I doubt it.
Hell, I was even having problems on my PSU, one of my fans kept turning itself off, so in the end I just unplugged it.

Worst comes to worst, your system might reboot. Not turn on. I would actually buy one locally, try it out. If it works, return it, order it cheaper online, if it doesn't work, return it to the store.
