Hi again, I've done some upgrades to my PC and I want to know if the current 500W POV PSU is enough for better performance.... I have :
Code: 
Abit IP35-E     Intel C2D E8400 3.0GHz     Corsair 1GB x 2 800MHz     Seagate 1TB      Radeon HD3650 512MB     Samsung DVD-RW
Do I need to upgrade the SMPS bought 6months back ?

500W SMPS should be enough for you setup.
