I got a Combo at newegg at a good price but I'm worried about the power supply, if it will at least power my pc till a few weeks down the road when I can get a better one.

http://goo.gl/Lylgzj This link will take you to Newegg.com. This is all the part I got.

P.s I also got a Cooler Master Seidon 240M for my CPU and I know I could have bought individural parts but I'm new to computers and just want a good base line to start building on, plus this is a rather good value and the graphics card gave me 3 free games.

Ok. I confirmed that the Rosewill Lightning 800W is OEM'd by Superflower. You have a very, very, good power supply there. If you were expecting that to be a poor unit, then you hit pay dirt!

Not sure why you're worried about the PSU, is there any reason to it?
It's 80+ gold certified, japanese capacitors, semi modular, a switch for the leds, extra cables..

You could theoretically power that system with a quality 500W with the proper 6-pin/8-pin connectors. 800W is more than enough and could power another graphics card as well. I probably would have said get "at least" a suitable 600W.

For example it has SIX PCIe connectors that are 6+2 (6 or 8) pin and you require 1x6-pin and 1x8-pin for your graphics card.

I know others have told you it's fine and it is.

Your good and comfortably so. With a superflower based Rosewill no less. Remember the PSU calculators out there are very conservative. You might even be able to power that with a really good 400-450w unit. So at 800, you have decent headroom as well.
