330 Watt Underpowering???

[twoheadedboy00]

Recently my computer has started to crap out on me. I have an ASUS P4C-800 Deluxe, ATI Radeon 9800 Pro, 512 DDR Corsair (@320 or 266, can't remember), audigy 2 platinum, dvd-rom, cd-rw, dvd-rw, a 120 gig and a 160 gig. Recently, the computer has started to have this graphics corruption that looks like pink lines running down the screen. It screws up when you render in 3d, and i dont really know what to do. I think it might be the graphics card, but for some reason that I don't remember right now i don't think it's the card. Do you think it's underpowered with only a 330 watt powersupply?

I have a comparable set-up with the same graphics card. MSI power calc says 347 watts. You have got to be playing on the borderline here. I would definitely consider a larger PSU. Try thins link to calculate your current draw. Copy and paste it into your address bar.
