what wattage of psu should I aim for with 8800gts 640 MB

[TheOrangeDude]

here is my brand new pc's info:
CPU: C2D 6420
MB: gigabyte ds3
ram: corsair 2x1g 800
GPU: evga/bfg 8800gts 640mb

I'm ordering parts atm for my new intel base pc. Can any one recommand me a power supply unit that can fully support 8800 gts 640MB even if I over clock. right now I have my eye on a 500 watts psu.

here is the link of the psu:
http://www.directcanada.com/products/?sku=36290AC4925&vpn=MP-500&manufacture=NMedia System

also will this case able hold the 8800 since I heard 8800 very long in length.

I would look to another psu since that doesn't even say how much amps on the rails it has

here is more specific info, one thing crap about buying stuff on directcanada is that dont have much info on the item. I have to look for info over at ncix instead -_-. but how ever the price from directcanada is the one that interest me altho both ncix and dc is owned by the same person.

My theory was right, is crap it wouldn't even power a 7900, try looking at something with more than 40 amps on the 12v@ rail

It's quite sufficient, but this is much better: http://www.directcanada.com/products/?sku=11180AC4384&vpn=CMPSU-520HX&manufacture=CORSAIR

If you want to save a little money, there's also this: http://www.directcanada.com/products/?sku=23610AC2893&vpn=ENP-5150GH&manufacture=Enhance Electronics
Same internals as the Silverstone you linked to, but with two fewer SATA connectors, no sleeved cables and a one year warranty.
