And So thanks for the answer anyways, Looks like i Gotta change the psu then,
A cooler master 500w will suffice will it? what is its actual wattage output ? (75%?)

Sorry to say, you have fallen victim to the shader count of 9600GSO. Actually, performance wise, its quite BELOW the 9600GT, mainly since it has a lower clock speed, only 192bit memory instead of 256bit in 9600GT and lesser RAM.
And more shaders matter only at higher resolutions, and even then, 9600GT is ahead of 9600GSO.
At the price range of 9600GSO, HD4670 would be the best choice available, but sadly none of them are serious gaming cards.
Anyway, since you have already bought it, you just need to make the best use out of it.
