Becareful with which motherboard you have the MSI KM4M-V is not nice with powerful PSU's.
Ive seen one with a 600W frying a 2.8XP CPU because of the extra wattage available. 400W though is a safe bet at least. even a 300W will be fine with that card, just because it says it needs a 300W doesnt mean it will use it all, some Geforce FX cards say 350-450W needed but ive had machines running fine and smooth on 300W PSU's.

Yes indeed good investment.. I have a 6600 GT PCI-E.. And bang for the buck that thing beats all cards (in that range). The 6800 should keep you on top for quite awhile. Good job snakey. I hope you enjoy it.
