I'd probably just get a CX430 or something. Then you have some headroom down the line and they cost about the same.

I was going i just dont have the money this week i was wondering if i would be fine with the 250 for a week or so then im ordering the 430 watt

Just wait and build it when you get the CX430. Don't risk frying anything with a crappy 250W PSU, cause you could wind up spending a lot more money.

Get a 600W corsair to give you headroom in case you want to upgrade the GPU later. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...108&cm_re=600w_corsair-_-17-139-108-_-Product

refurbished i know, but seriusly, refurbished by corsair is as good as new.
