John Andrew :

You should always go with the recommended plus 10%.

the decent average psu now is 500-550w, you can see how far you are from that. go buy a decent psu, don't risk it. how old is that psu if i may?
remember that capacitor ages, so a good headroom is welcome

Plus the efficiency levels, as its not guaranteed that a 180W PSU will give 180W only
