i'm building a computer for my folks. they just like to surf the web, play music, maybe watch videos and movies, and store photos and what not. i know i wont need much of a power supply for them, but i dont want to get too cheap.

they're gonna be runnin a fairly decent cpu (3200win), only 1 optical drive, only 1 hdd, and a really cheap 6200 video card. i originally picked out an antec true430 for them, but i saw this case and saw it included a 350watt power supply and i wanted to know if it would be enough.

also, i dont think the power supply has a pci-x16 connector, and i have a pci-x16 setup, but the actual card, i dont think, requires any power connectors. should i be fine?
 
No you won't need the PCI-E connection but the motherboard might need a 24-pin.

You might need to look for a PSU with 24-pin connection.
