Hi,

I've decided on a case and now I need a PSU. I'm looking at spending at least $100 and need to know how powerful it should be. My system is as follows:

P4 3.2Ghz
LG DVD-ROM
LG CD-RW
2 x Seagate 120GB S-ATA
1 x Seagate 40GB IDE
ATI 9800 Pro 128Mb
1 x Floppy Drive
4 x Case fans

Any ideas?

Many thanks
Mataus

The best standard PSU I can think of is the Fortron Source/Sparkle Power FSP530. But that cost around $70, if you want to spend more I'd go PC Power&Cooling.
