I have an i7-3770k Overclocked to 4.5Ghz and 16GB Ram with a GTX 670 4GB on a 600 Watt PSU (PC Power & Cooling Silencer Mk III). I think your friends rig would be fine with his current 500w PSU.
This happened to me with Borderlands 2! I ordered a 670 GTX 4GB, then two weeks later they offer Borderlands 2 free with it. I spoke to 3-4 different people and they wouldn't budge. The final CS Rep told me to just return the one I purchased two weeks earlier as defective and order a new one...
