I'm pretty sure it that i have enough power but i just want to make sure I'm needing to upgrade my comp a little and just checking to see if http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371013 will be enough to support all I'm upgradingg is from 512 mb of RAM to 2 GB and upgrading my GPU to the radeon 9400 pro right now my old stuff is running fine on a 250W but from what i have read the 2400 pro needs larger than that so was just making sure that 350W will be fine and run with out to many hiccups

  1. That 350W power supply should run cool all day long and have more power to spare. ATI HD 2400 is actually a low wattage card that draws up to about 15 watts.  


  2. I have almost the same setup except the radeon. Be careful with the extra video. I had a super fast video board and I believe it caused a catastrophic failure on an otherwise reliable MSI motherboard. Replaced the motherboard, used all the old parts except the super fast video in favor  of on board video. No failures yet. The super fast video board had a large heat-sink which always got quite warm telling me it was using lots of power. The on board video works fine so I really didn't need a high speed board. The 350W should work but as there is only a small price difference if you move up to a 450W, so why not have the extra capability and go with the 450W.
