Default this power supply enough to overclock?
I will be getting a c2d and overclock it to 3.0ghz with 1gb of buffalo firestix, will this power supply provide enough power to overclock?

More than enough.

My 500W Hirpo (good brand, just not well known) was under $40 and it does that fine.

Runs my e'6400 @ 3.5+ fine, with corsair xms (2.1v, 4-4-4-9), 2 hard drives, cd/dvd, and my 7600gt.
