It will. But not recommenced. If not now, it will show it's true colors after a year or two of extensive usage.

How old is the PSU? You have a nice rig so you should invest in the power supply too. Never trust local PSUs. I suggest you to be safe and buy FSP saga 350w for 1.4k

A decent quality 460W PSU is more than enough for this rig. I won't use a 400Rs PSU with 8600GT.

Ah ok , if you're getting the FSP soon then no probs. But I wouldn't trust Zebronics with my life , my old Geforce 6600GT conked out thanks to it.
