Hey

Have no fear, buy an antec 620w power supply such as the link below.  You could get away with a 500 but I'd recommend a bit more so its not close to full capacity.

Looks like 360 watt power supply.

That's 360w on wall but it can fluctuate and you can't get a power supply for the exact amount you need.  You have to have fluctuation room.

It doesn't hurt to put a little fan over your USB, will probably see less errors. How long did it take from order to delivery, I am waiting on a couple myself :)
