Because I found out the Samsung 305T would not work with my old computer, now my question is if the power supply is only 460W on my new computer will it be sufficient enough to run this monitor http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/detail/spec.do?group=computersperipherals&type=monitors&subtype=lcd&model_cd=LS30HUBCB/XAA&fullspec=F
Now if it is, would it be sufficient enough to run 2 of these 30'inch monitors, and if not is there anyway I can upgrade my power supply and if so can you please send me in the right direction, Sorry Im very computer illiterate.

Your monitor really has nothing to do with your power supply. Those monitors require two DVI connections each. That computer only has 2 DVI ports. In order to run both of those monitors you would need to purchase another video card with dual DVI ports in which case your power supply would come into play. Your power supply would have to be able to support dual video cards. The wattage of your power supply isn’t listed on that page so I can’t say. But it would really depend on the video card as well. Higher end gaming cards require a lot more wattage than a plain jane dual DVI video card. It all depends on what you get.
Power from the PC not should not effect the monitors. Its the graphics video card that decides whether or not it can power the monitors. First check the video card and see if it has duo monitor output, this can be VGA or HDMI or DVI. The native resolution of the Monitor is 2560 X 1600. You will need a medium end graphics card to power this, your pc has a Nvidia 9800GT with 512MB of ram and two DVI outputs. This card will definitely work. (I checked the NVIDIA Website for a 9800GT resolutions). You might see a little chopiness if you try some highend game, but for video editting and photo manipulation you do have enough power. Your System Memory of 8GB is fine too. You will have no doubt a kick-butt system.
