Max output - 250w
At Scan, for £223, you can get a Gigabyte P35 Mobo, a 256MB XFX 8800GT and 2GB of Corsair RAM (PC6400 CL4). Then when you can afford it, you can grab a nice new CPU to slot in that Mobo - I'd recommend a E6750.
Ah, you would also want a new PSU. You could get one with that lot and still just about be within budget. The 460W Gigabyte one Scan do is excellent value - that's not to say it's especially good, but it'll do the job perfectly well enough for that setup.

does anyone else think his power supply is getting a bit stretched?

Before upgrading your graphics card, definitely look at a new PSU.

You can get free delivery at scan by join av forums.
And yes you need a new PSU to run an upgraded rig.
