I'm not sure if this is the best place to put it but here is is. So i wanted to upgrade my GPU after 2011 to a gtx 660 (no ti). But i was wondering what i would also have to upgrade my power supply to a 500w and or my motherboard. Will my computer handle a 430w PSU. I also have the usual fans, webcam, keyboard ect... 8gb ram, and 4 terabytes of HDD as well as 60gb SSD. My CPU = MD Phenom(tm) II X2 560 Processor (2 CPUs), ~3.3GHz. Motherboard = Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2P Award Modular BIOS v6.00PG (do i need a new one?) PSU = outdated but not sure what one to buy. Help with what to buy please, models not to expensive, rather good bang for buck.
THANKS IN ADVANCE

OCZ has greatly priced 600w and 750w fully modular PSU's.
Here, check this out. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1PJ5u
You only need around 400w, but a fully modular PSU at this wattage at this price is very good, and will allow for a cpu upgrade AND probably an additional GPU.
