Re: Found this power supply calculator

If you sit down and think about it, you'll realize a 375W PSU is more than enough to support any peripherals that will fit into the Dimension 9200 case.

Let's do the math. The Core 2 Duo has a max TDP of 65W. The dual-GPU 7950 GX2 requires a maximum of 143W according to nVidia. Optical drives pull about 25W each. Hard drives are 15W each. Assuming the processor and video card only use +12V, it would need ~20A on +12V. I guarantee you the Dell 375W unit can provide much more than that.
