My parents old computer died and I ordered parts for them for a new build. Their new power supply which I was simply counting on one dvd drive, i3 2100 cpu, 1 stick of ram and integrated graphics from the cpu at stock is thermaltake 430 watt

I've read that the 260 geforce requires a 500 watt power supply but wondering with this few of components and the new sandy bridge processors requiring almost no power if this may be enough.
3 80 mm case fans, 1 dvd rw drive, 1 stick of 4 gigs of ram, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130588 is the mb
and i3 2100 cpu at stock
