will this power supply be enough for this system?

Since the place I'm getting the powersupply from doesn't have the 500w will the 400w Raidmax work as well? We kinds got screwed that godly of all places colorcases.com messed up the order. Sent the case and fans ok but didn't bother to call us to tell us the powersupply the raidmax 500w were out. So.... Would either the Colorcases 550w or the Raidmax 400w be enough for this system below?


AMD 2800+ Barton
Geforce 5600 FX
ASUS A7N8X Deluxe
512MB PC2700 Kingston
120GB HardDrive
LITE-ON DVD-CD/RW combo drive

Thanks.

AFAIK from RobRich's articles found here:

The RaidMax PSU's sound like great units. As a general rule of thumb, stay away from generic power supplies. When I had my AMD 800 Thunderbird, the PSU blew, and since then I've been purchasing Antec PSU's 400+ watts just to be on the safe side.
