PSU - What watt?

[bobd_uk]

Can anyone tell me how I can work out what wattage PSU I will need?

I plan on having:

S939 mobo
512Mb RAM
AMD 3200+ or 3400+ (may be overclocked)
2 HDDs
1 DVD writer
1 AGP or PCI-E video card
a few fans, etc

Antec 400 watt will suffice

 

[DJ-CHRIS]

A decent 420watt at minimum.

I run a very simmilar setup but with more than few fans (13) on a 420watt thermaltake td-420ad and it's going great. And i have an extra 512 of ram.

This is exactly what i run on my 420
2 WD 7200RPM harddrives
13+ fans
AMD 3400+ OC'ed to 2.47
CD Burner
Asus A8V OC'ed to 265ish
2x 512 meg ram
6600GT OC'ed
