Power supply question

[loosie]

Decided to switch over to athlon and I was just wondering what size power supply I will need.

System components I plan to transfer:
3 hard drives- 2 40 gig and 1 30 gig
1 lite on 24x writer
1 48x cdrom
Scanner/ laser printer
Cambridge soundworks 4 point surrond system
voodoo 3000
sound card/nic/modem/3 fans

Plan to go with xp1800+/Mobo???


300 Watt power supply enough???

Thanks, l

P.S. How much faster is DDR memory compared to quality 133 SDRAM

The speakers wont need to use the computer's power would they? Or have you like wired it up to it does? If thats even possible

A quality 300W PSU would do that job. You can check AMD's recommended PSU list on their website. As far as PC133 vs DDR, a standard stick of DDR2100 (DDR266) would have twice the memory bandwidth of that of a stick of PC133. So yes, get DDR.
