OK, I am getting an Asus A7N8X Deluxe and 1 gig (2x512) PC 2700 RAM put in my case. I am keeping everything else. My specs are below. Will 300 watts PSU be enough to power it sufficently?? Or do I need to get another power supply. I am having someone else put in my motherboard and RAM as I don't know how to do it, so do I need to up grade my PSU while I am at it??

It wouldn't hurt.
I run a 500w, and a 480Bw in my newest systems.
Although I do have 350's running my other older systems.
I don't run all of the extra's that you have though in the 350's.
Personally I would get a 400w at least.
