So I'm currently running a:
Phenom4x 2.2Ghz
NX8800gt OC
4gigs ram
250gb HD (probably sata 2)
all running on 600W power supply

I recently bought:

Amd FX 4100 3.6gz
gtx 560ti (factory OC i think)
8gigs ram
500gb sata 3
+maybe the old HD
+maybe a cooling system

question is, will the above setup run on 600W?
If not please I'd appreciate some brand suggestions.

looking at that a 600 should run it but id say just to make sure maby a 650 at the moment im running very similar hardware which is a 3.6 6 core 1100t 4gb ram but got the 5870 which is like a 580 so yeah on a think it was a 600w so yeah a 650 should be more then enough

Just dont buy a generic crappy thing.. Spend the extra $$ and get a brand like Corsair, Antec or OCZ..

One of the biggest rules I live by when building a computer is never skimp on the PSU..
