I recently upgraded my CPU, mobo and RAM and added a HDD so my rig looks like this now.
C2D E6550
Gigabyte P35-DS3R
2x1GB Corsair ValueSelect 667MHz
2x Hitachi 160GB SATA-II
1x250Gb Seagate 7200.10 SATA-II
1xBenQ 1640 DVDRW
1x7800 GT 256MB
Logitech MX518 (USB)
Saitek Eclipse keyboard (USB)
1x80mm and 1x 120 mm case fans
All running bone stock, and powered by a CoolerMaster 450W Real Power PSU.
No overclocking planned either.
I've temporarily removed my PCI TV tuner card and Audigy 2 soundcard as I was not sure if the PSU can handle all the load.
I am going to upgrade to a 8800GT and I'd also like to put my 2 PCI cards back in the case.
Will the CM450W be able to handle everything smoothly, or is there no headroom left?

Also, any advice on what could be a (possible) replacement PSU to handle this rig would be greatly welcome.
