My Wal-Mart PC is 300W and it handles 2 CDs, 2 HDs, a 9500, and all the other usuals fine.

The total wattage really doesn't matter, what matters is how much the PSU can support on the +3.3v and +5v rails. 175W (standard for a high-quality 300W one) and above is pretty much OK.

So it should be able to handle another hd that I'll prolly throw in it? I was looking at their Dual Processor AMD's, but the basic system costs about the same amount as the ABS system decked out with what I want.
