senium7 ,use this online PSU calculator Thermaltake Power Supply Calculator fill in all the devices and cards etc this will determine the size of PSU your new system will require, add 50-100 watts on top of the suggestion for future needs

The PSU is key. My recommendation would be Antec. Too bad your budget does not allow for a small (e.g. 60GB) SSD for the OS only. That would make the system a lot faster.

On such a tight budget build, I don't think that the SSD is a real key for a good performing system. I still work with plenty of spinner drive machines (about 99% of all machines I use) and while slower..certainly fast enough for the systems to be completely usable.

Of course it will work without an SSD. But I get nervous every time I have to deal with a system that does not have an SSD - but maybe I am hyper - LOL.

I'm glad that I don't get nervous. I only have an SSD in my main box at home. None of my other desktops, or laptops at home have them. None of my servers, laptops or storage devices at work have SSD either.
