Does my new PSU have enough power?
Recently, my PSU broke. I replaced it with this:
seasonic 430 Watt SS-430hb http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817151044 Is that power supply enough to support all of my compenents? I was previously using this power supply 600 watt OCZ StealthXstream. http://www.microcenter.com/single_pr...uct_id=0260161 Here are my specs: Mobo Gigabyte GA-P35C-DS3R http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128048 CPU Q6600 2.4 Ghz Quad Core CPU G0 Stepping http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819115017 Video card EVGA 9600 GT http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130424 TV Tuner Hauppauge WinTV-PVR 500 (dual analog tuner) http://www.buy.com/prod/hauppauge-wi...202151598.html HDD 4 x Maxtor Daimond Max 500 GB 7200 RPM Hard Drives http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822144450 RAM 2 x 2GB G.Skill DDR2 800 RAM http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231111 I have the following devices plugged into the I/O Panel. USB wireless mouse USB wireless keyboard USB RF receiver Audio out (goes to TV) I occassionally plug in a xbox 360 wireless adapter to play video games, but this is usually not attached. Also, If I want to upgrade my video card to something like a HD 4890, will I need to upgrade the power supply? Let me know if you need any more information. Thanks in advance.

A 4890 requires 500+ W, so yes, you'd need to upgrade your PSU for that.
