I am quite sure that my Asus P5N-E SLI motherboard can support a Q6600/6700 LGA775 65nm Core 2 Quad processor but I am not sure whether my PSU would be able to handle the upgrade. I will also be upgrading the heatsink to a Freezer 7 pro, would my PSU be able to handle that?
Here are the details on my PSU sticker:
(H.E.C) HIGH-QUALITY EVOLUTION COMMITMENT
HEC-550TD-PTE

Is my PSU good enough for the new heatsink and processor? My current processor is a E6550 Core 2 Duo 2.33Ghz.
