Still no problem. the GPU is hat uses the most power, and that card is only a mid-range GPU. You could overclock to high heavens and still this will only use 300w or less under full gaming load.

Thanks again, i guess i'll stick with my psu for the new build. I was in a little fix as my old intel core based system was producing fair amount of heat but i guess this was due to my substandard chinese casing
