yes it can handle it most likely however if its a generic supply it wouldnt hurt to get a namebrand in the 3-500 watt range coz it will usually make the whole system more stable ..

Yes. I just built a system with similar specs with a 300 watt power supply. Unless you have several hard drives, that should be enough power.

It should be able to, but I would recommend more. I have a 500 watt psu to play safe. You need to consult the individual parts' manuals. They tell you what they need.
