    In your case 350 watts is a good minimum but 400 would be better as long as its a good brand like enermax. Might think about the alienware case there pretty nice. http://www.chieftec.com/products/products.htm

    I got a 400w Macron for an 1800+ in a system that will suck a lot less juice than that. I'd go for 400 minimum.

    I would use an ANTEC 840, they're awesome and affordable. 400 watt PSU ................ I've got 2 servers running in that case.
