Hell no.
Not only is that only a 230W PSU, i bet it is also an old and cheap 230W unit.
I bet big money that it will fail spectacularly or not work at all with the new system.
At the bare minimum i reccomend a quality brand name 300W psu... Antec, Enermax or Toptower are my suggestions. A 350W PSU or greater is advised for future upgradability.

Hang on, did you say a 230 Volt or 230 Watt PSU?
Depending on where you live, 230 Volt might be standard irrespective of the wattage.
In terms of wattage, I'd go for a minimum of 350 Watt in a good brand name like Antec or Enermax.
