How much can a 420 watt Power Supply handle? How about This MotherBoard, ASUS M3N78-VM AM2+/AM2 NVIDIA GeForce 8200 HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard? And What CPU would be best on it with that Power Supply? I'm just useing the onboard video in the motherboard.

Might need to raise the 420w to a 500w.
Powercooler, Antec, OCZ, not sure about corsair, there good on higher wattage.

Geforce 8200 kinda old dont u think? not much for a 9600 with a 500w....

I switched it to a 8300, but it's onboard... I'll get a better video card later... It's has 2.0 PCI slot
