    as Much as I hate to say this... you folks are looking at half of the picture

    How many CD/DVD drives?
    Hard Drives, what Kind, how big, how fast?
    how many external dives?
    fan controllers?
    Fans?
    PCI Cards?


    I could get away with running a 600w PSU...
    except for the 4TB 0=1 on SATA2, the 500GB R1 and the 260 R0 on Velociraptors... then there are the twin 8800 GTX OC 768s...



    then Fans...
    it all adds up.


    Here is a tool I like to use.

    it will get you reasonably close.. then you should round up. (Good call Hoosier)

    and if I might suggest an Un-interuptable power supply... nothing fancy but clean power is extremely important to your MB

    Before I Added the Velociraptors
