I have a 400 watt psu. at the moment everything is fine with it, but what will happen when i add another gf6600gt?

atm i have this in the box:
asus a8n sli deluxe
athlon 64 3200+
gf6600gt
two kingston 512mb sticks of ram
a dvd writer as the only optical drive
a seagate 7200rpm 160gb hd
and a floppy drive Wink

will 400 watts still be enough after i add another gfx card?

Myth,

You should be fine as you don't really have alot power hungry add-ons.

However, I probably would feel more comfortable if you had 450+ watts.

There is nothing wrong with having more than you need when it comes to power.
