Alright, so my computer is a Compaq Presario SR2038X which I got for Christmas. Ever since I've discovered how demanding today's games are, i've been fixed on upgrading my video card. I just ordered a Sapphire x1950 Pro 512MB PCI-Express card from newegg. here's the link

I've talked with customer support and found out I have a microATX form factor psu installed with 300 watts. I just ordered this supply:

However, I'm still a little doubtful about whether or not this will be able to power this graphics card. I'm not into speding lots of money here, I just want a psu that can power this card without problems. Please help!
Here are my specs:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+
250 GB hard drive
DVD and CD reader/burner
3 GB DDR2 RAM
Running XP Media Center Edition 2005
