Making A New Computer

I bought "4200 Athlon 64 Dual Core CPU, Board Bundle + 1GB DDR2 Memory" from Maplins, and a Nvidia Geforce 8800GS, also. I have 2GB of RAM, but the problem is, is the Power Supply.

I have a 250-270W Power supply, and I just need to know whether all these parts will work using this "crappy" power supply. If not, please tell me the cheapest and best Power Supply, and which power supply I should use (400W?)

Thanks,

This is my first post, btw!

I would definately get a better power supply, I would be very wary using that psu with that system.

The Rosewill RP500-2 v2.01 500W for ~$45 would be a quality psu for it's price. Once you get into the $50 range your options start to open up, let us know if you have to spend less than $45, or what your budget is.
 
Overall budget? Why don't you go for intel set up?
Is maplin get a good deal?
Will you buying stuff from web?
