Hey, I've just ordered some new parts to upgrade my comp and was wondering if I needed to get a new PSU as well. My current PSU is 350W and has served me well so far but with my new equipment I wasn't sure if it will still hold up. If I do need a new PSU then could anyone please advise me as to what voltage and maybe provide links to some good ones. My power absorbing hardware is as follows...
I believe that's everything that absorbs power from the PSU. I'm using the retail fan that comes with the P4. I also have a PCI soundcard but it doesn't plug into the PSU or anything. Thanks in advance.

all parts of your computer draw power either directly though a plug from the PSU or from the motherboard socket its plugged into... HERE
is a good place to get all the info you require concerning your power questions...
Depending on the Brand of PSU, It would be a close call. But With an X800 and a P4 3.2Ghz I would recommend Upgrading. If it is not name brand I would recommend upgrading imediately.
