After spending years on my 9600 pro, I'm finally upgrading my video card so I can play games like Oblivion and Gothic 3 on high settings instead of low settings to fully enjoy those games. I'm considering buying the x1950 pro agp to replace my exisiting video card. I'm also buying this power supply to power my new card:

Also considering that I have a Pentium D 820 and 3 hard drives, will it be enough to power my rig?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

While that is most likely enough, I would spend $2(after shipping) more and get the Corsair 520HX from buy.com w/GCO

I agree the Corsair would be a better option but that earth watts offers about 30A on the combined +12v rails so you will have plenty of power with that PSU. You just won't have any room for further upgrades. Thou i suspect you will be building a new system well before you upgrade that one again.
