Is this PSU overloaded?

I think you are getting close. And it depends
how on the edge you want to be...An upgrade
to a more modern 2.0 spec 450w would get you some more headroom. But I don't think you are in danger of blowing up.
PM me if you want a resource to help you judge better....

Mike
 
You've got that PSU fairly loaded. If it were me I'd feel far more comforable with a bigger unit.
