Sorry for the delay in getting back to you, been under the weather the last few days with a bad case of the flu. . .I hate that!
As far as video cards and power supplies go, a good rule of thumb is if, like many of todays newer mid-range and high end video cards, if it has an external power cord that plugs into your PS, get a BIG PS, at least 500 watts. If it draws it's power from the slot PCI or AGP 300 watts should be enough. The key to a gaming card is how many fps it can run at at max resolution and all extras turned on. All you need is about 36 fps consistent, but, gamers want 100's of fps. . .just to be on the safe side.
Sounds like you've got a good idea of what you want, and New Egg is the place, it's where I buy 98% of all my computer stuff. But, if you do have questions, just ask and if don't know an answer, I'll have it for you very soon.
