They are basically extra settings to increase how "nice" the visuals look.
You can read more about them at wikipedia if your interested.
Anti-aliasing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

They should be settings in the game graphics menu or your video card control panel.

Only if you have a poor quality brand and or if you just meet the minimum requirements.
If your using a power supply well above required you don't need to worry about that.
What is your power supply?

Thats more than enough since the 9500gt is really low end, even if you overclocked it.

No, the wattage and amperage that is listed on a PSU is the maximum amount the power supply can output.
But that does not mean the computer is using that much at all times.
A computer only pulls what it needs, so it pulls less power at idle and more power during heavy loads.
A computer should never pull even close to the maximum output of the power supply it is running on.

I don't know how much your computer is using.
If you really want to know you can get A DMM to measure the amps and voltages on the psu.
To know the total wattage your PC is using you need a kilowatt power meter to measure from the wall.
Overclocking does produce more heat because it requires more energy, but it won't be enough for you to worry about.
Since your only doing about 5 or 10% increases.
