your psu should run that fine. major things that take up power are:

cpu
video
cd drives
pci cards

yours should give you more than enough
 
how do you figure?, i dunno how much that card requires but i thought that card only needed like 300 watts...
 
go 500, 550, or 600 just to be safe, I wouldnt risk it. it may work but i wouldnt take the chance, be safe and get a 500w at least
