Power supply upgrade?

    I'm thinking of upgrading my machine to an Intel Core i7-920 running off an Asus P6T SE X58 mainboard with a Radeon HD 4890 graphics card and 6GB of DDR3 memory. My current power supply is a Storm 700W unit, which is three years old. Would this work with the new setup, or should I upgrade it too?

    Edit: I'd also be keeping my current hard drive (250 GB) and optical drive, and adding a new 1TB hard drive.

    700 W must be enough for that machine. However I don't know the Storm brand, and I would recommend to buy a good PSU such as Corsair, OCZ... for example.

    Thanks for that, I'll probably keep it unless it actually goes wrong though.
