They current ones use the same power, but idk if your old one uses the same as the new ones. If it does, 500w is more than enough. If you need a new one for your build i'd go with antec basiq 350w.

I looked up your motherboard and it has a 20 pin power connector. Most current motherboards use a 24pin power connector, but some psu's come with a 20+4 pin cable that is compatible with both. So check and see what you have to make sure it works.
