Will Antec TruePower 430w be able to handle this?

It will probably be fine, my only concern would be that it isn't an ATX 12v 2.x compliant unit, which is more efficient (read: longer lifespan) and handles modern systems much better because they draw a lot of power from the 12v lines.

Rig:

1gb Crucial DDR400
Evga 7800GT 256mb
WD raptor 36gb
Seagate 250GB seriala ATA
floppy
NEC DVD+RW


Maybe SLI when the price of the video drops to $250ish. But will teh current PSU be able to handle the task smoothly non-oced?



BTW, the evga board has 4 pin molex connector underneath the first PCI-e slot (also called e-z plug), does this need to be plugged in even though im not using SLI?

yeah. i've got a 400w antec smartpower 2.0 powering about the same rig. no hiccups.
