I'm building a new rig, but I need to know if my current PSU will support it. It seems like it will, but I just want to double check so I don't have to buy another one.

My current PSU: Antec TruePower 2.0 430 Watts (currently discontinued) It has 17 amps per each 12V rail.

My new stuff:

9800 GTX+
AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000
Mobo
2 Sticks of 1 gig ram
1 HDD
2 Optical Drives

I'm not planning on overclocking these either. So, will it work?
 
If the power supply is old, which is what I am assuming this it is discontinued, I would replace it for something newer.
 
Here's my advice to you and I know what you're thinking because I'm going through the exact same thing. I just got a new system like yours and the PSU I got for it died and I have my old OCZ Modstream 450W in it right now and yes it powers on and works. Here is the thing though I am looking for a new PSU because if your Power supply dies it can muff your whole system up I mean just fry everything! Even though it might support it if you don't get a new one soon you're on that line of asking for something bad to happen to you. Hope this has helped.
