Howdy guys.

Im currently running an Intel E7200 with a Geforce 8600GT 512MB. I'm a big fan of the newer games and have heard that the 8600GT is pretty poor, and a good upgrade would be to the 8800. My question is about power supply. Im on a 400W power supply right now and I'm not sure if that would sufficient to run the 8800. I was also curious if the jump in performance justifies the cost, seeing as how I'm broke right now :) Can anyone answer this? Thanks abunch!!

Go for the 9600GT, it's cheaper, doesn't use nearly the power and gives nearly 100% the performance of the 8800GT.
