Yeah, of course!! you're lucky your computer still works.
Always have some extra watts of power than needed.

Hi. A good power supply is always a good investment. You can install it in a new box when you upgrade. And I think a 160w unit would have real problems supporting a 400w drain. I would go with a 550w or more unit because there are more things using its power. (Fans, motherboard, RAM, CPU, etc.)
