where do i go in my computer to find out what my current power supply is? whats the max it can handle, etc....

Inside the PC case and read what's printed on the label of the power supply unit. I don't know of ANY utility program which reports that information from within Windows.

Unfortunately, for some units you'd need to remove the power unit from the case in order to read the label.
