If your running stock NO OC with a dedicated video card or OC'd using onboard video, you will be ok. Just watch your rails, if you start noticing some instabilities or BSOD's at stock clocks then you may want to look somewhere else.

A power supply really isn't something you should skimp on. Maybe cut back on your cpu, possibly down to an e7300 or e5200 and up your budget in the power supply department.
