I have this config:

C2D e4600
Intel dg43gt mobo
4 GB RAM (4 sticks)
Seagate 1.5 TB + 500 GB + 250 gb pata
2 x LG DVDRAM RW SATA
Radeon 5770 1 gb ddr5
5 x 120 mm fans

How much power supply should be good for it??

i think i have cooler master 500w silent pro. it should be good enough, right? Also am planning to replace 250 GB pata with SSD soon. The disk is more than 6 years old. So still it would be enough, might or might not keep the disk after that

You can go with WD Cavier Black 1TB also good performance(not as fast as a SSD but still very fast)
