Will it work: new parts, same old psu

[ecksit]

After finally upgrading my pc (parts are on order) for the first time in years I forgot to check if I should get a bigger psu.

I currently have an Antec 430w which I purchased a year ago because my other one gave out.

It works perfectly fine on my current configuration, which consists of parts all 2+ years old:

Athlon 64 4000
cheap asus board
1gb G.Skill
geforce 7600gt

The parts I have on order are:

Core2 q9400
mid range sli board
xfx GTS 250 (512mb)
4gb G.Skill 1066

I will not be SLI'ing right away and will be running a single card for some time. I also have no intentions of overclocking.

Also, I don't know if this is a factor, but I have a Sound blaster extreme gaming sound card, and about 3-4 usb devices plugged in at all times, and 2 case fans.

Will the old Antec 430w be enough to power my new parts?

If not, what do you suggest?

The rig below in my signature is running on an Antec Earthwatts 430W with no problems.

Wow, I tried that link you gave me and it said recommended psu wattage would be 38w. lol

Anyways, I have the 430w earthwatts antec as well, and seeing as it runs your system fine, I should be fine as well.

Thanks!

Edit: I forgot to hit calculate... (im dumb)
