950W ? is thats 2.1 ATX or newer, you can use at least 3x 5850's, IMO, unsure about 4x.
5770 is cold, sure and 5750 even lack aux PCI-e power connectors ;P

What type is the 5850?
I don't know of any that only have one 6pin connection. That would imply much lower power consumption compared to a typical 5850
4 Should work on that PSU, though I would suggest calculating your total wattage and compare that to the efficiency rating of the PSU, the 950W is not technically the "maximum limit".

Hey everyone,
So I've got this one 6-pin 5850. I'm wondering how many I could actually run on a 950w power supply.
Right now, I've got 4 normal 5850's on a Corsair TX950. They use two 6-pins. So I'm guessing i could fit maybe...6 of the one pin ones?
What about 5770's? Do they use the same power draw if they have the same number of connectors (1 6 pin)? Would this mean that I could use 3 5770s and 3 5850s?
Thanks everyone!
