ZT Systems Power Supply Upgrade

[wjlinvt]

I'm buying a new ZT Affinity 7644Mi desktop PC. Includes Intel Core i7-2600 (3.4GHz), 16Gb RAM, 2TB SATA HD, integrated Intel HD Graphics.

I plan on adding a new graphics card and power supply. Can you recommend a power supply to replace the ATX 12V 350W power supply? The reason for the component upgrade is that I have two monitors (DVI connectors) and want to be able to do multitasking, photo editing, videos and perhaps some gaming.

I'm looking at the 1GB Dell nVIDIA GeForce GTS 240.

Any feed back is appreciated as I am a novice at this..

i would recommend a more modern card like the HD6670. it's got low power consumption so you won't need to upgrade your power supply.

Do you have a budget you can throw at me please.

Thanks for responding. I would like to keep it <= $300US for both the card and power supply. I don't know enough about power supplies to be able to pick a higher wattage power supply that will fit in the space available.
