Mabey you guys can help me out. I was wondering how big of a power supply i will need for my comp. here are the specs....

Proc: FX-60
1Gb performance ram will upgrade to 2GB
x1900 in CF
2x raptor HDs
2x Optical drives
Mobo a8r-mvp
5 fans
CPU fan: Zalman CNPS9500 LED

I will also be doing some moderate overclocking. So how many watts will be enough with some overhead?

What the hell?? No way you need that much I think you messed something up. 585watts was the most I could get with everything you listed.

Sorry guys i made a mistake when i said i need more than 680 watts. 680 watts is plenty with some overhead. I made the mistake of choosing "Dual Proccessor" i thought it said "Dual Core" so thats my mistake sorry for the mix up.
