    Replacing old parts! opinions wanted!

    So i had a thread little down further about upgrading my system. i have a 300-400 dollar budget and i got it as close to 400 as i could possibly think. if anyone has some opinions or suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated



    EVGA 01G-P3-1556-KR GeForce GTX 550 Ti (Fermi) FPB 1GB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

    G.SKILL Ares Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900) Desktop Memory Model F3-1866C9D-8GAB

    ASRock Z77 Extreme4 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

    Intel Core i3-2120 Sandy Bridge 3.3GHz LGA 1155 65W Dual-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 2000 BX80623I32120


    and do you think a 580w ps could run all this? or would i have to upgrade that aswell?

    Thanks,
    -Ryan

    Should be fine
    If you want to make sure there are wattage calculators on New Egg and TIger Direct
