If your going to add in a PCIe card, it's a must
500W minimum>>600 recommended
I don't think you would have the room for that PSU, and possibly the Video card
Take note, you may void warranty if you open the computer and start changing hardware
You will most likely be looking for Slimline design hardware for the inside of the computer
There's not much room in the inside
take a look at some pics, watch the video

You don't have to buy from them, just gives you an idea what your looking for
Edit>>
Try and be patient, shop around and get the best deal for your buck

Well, I think the card may fit because there is another PCI slot x16 on the motherboard, it is SLI I wanted a 600W power supply because to run the 9600 with SLI is a minimum of 600W with SLI running so thats why I switched to 600 instead of 500, I went to circuit city and they said I should buy a 500W and a 9800GT for 300$ I was like Ill think about it... Ill just order it off Newwgg for like 80$ cheaper so Ill ask them for advice once I get my pc ill bring it to them see if it can run a 9800 in it or 9600.
