That 500w Powersupply will not run a 9800 GTX...to be safe you need 30 amps on the 12v rail for a 9800 GTX.

Where did you get that information? I just looked at newegg. I found 3 Thermaltake 500W PSU's. Each has enough amps to power a 9800 GTX+ 1 Gb card although one doesn't have a PCIe connector so hopefully that's not the one he has:
