I am planning to buy a new video card, but I am not so sure if my 305W power supply in my dell e521 will be enough for it. I am not a huge gamer but I occasionally play high end games like company of heroes and planning to play comm and conquer 3 once it comes out.
I will probably go for a 256 MB geforce 7900GT or 7800GT but I am concerned if my power supply is ready for those or do I have to upgrade to a 500W supply. I have found a cheap power supply at circuit city, can anybody tell me if it is any good

here are my comp specs
AMD Athlon X2 Dual Core 3800+
2GB RAM ( 512 x 4)
160 GB hard drive
305 W power supply
Please help
Also do I really need a high end graphic card because I usually play my PS2, I just chill out with my pc and sometimes play some games. Should I then go for a 7600?
