Gigabyte K8n Pro
2 hard drives (wd 20gig and wd se 80gig, 20 gig is being replaced with ither an SATA 250gb wd hd probably)
Generic Floppy
2 optical drives (16x dvd-rom 48x cd burner)
Sound Blaster Audigy Gamer
4 80mm fans
Radeon 9700 Pro (for sale when i get a new gfx card)
2ccl blacklights

**radeon 9700 pro is being replaced with a GeForce 6800gt 256mb agp 8x**

Really as for now im just buying a new graphics card and a new hard drive and was wondering if my 400w psu is enough.
my 12v and 5v rails are within 2-4%-/+ its a good psu :)
 
There is no reason it shouldn't work if you already are using a Radeon 9700 Pro and it works fine. You can check my sig to see what I am running w/ a 350 Watt PCP&C. The system is overclocked also to 2.4 GHz, 300 HTT, 240 MHz memory.
