350w PSU enough for this pc?

I'm asking because I have this case and it comes with a 350w.

HERE!

And this is my pc P4 2.4c GHZ, ABIT IS7-E, 1GB PC 3200, 6800gt.

I plan on overclocking my cpu after I move everything in this new case and buy some extra cooling.

So is 350 enough for that even with overclocking? I have a 480 Ermax or whatever it's called, but it's a couple years old so I'm not sure if I should use it or not.

also in the side of this case there is a vent for cool air to come in to the cpu and I'm thinking I might add a fan under the vent to blow more cool air straight to it. Do ya think that's a good idea?

EDIT: forgot to post what was in my pc.

80g harddrive, videocard 6800gt, P4 2.4, floppy drive, cd burner, dvd drive, sound card, 120mm fan in the back and a 80mm fan in the front....that's about it I think.
 
That will run fine on that computer setup. If the 480W is working fine though, I would suggest using that. A couple of years old or not it will likely overclock better than the stock 350W Antec. Good luck...

Thanks for the reply. What do you think about the extra fan thing?
