Generally speaking, you'll be safe with any 300W power supply. If you're using a lot of internal hardware (SCSI, CD-R, etc...) then you may want to invest in a superior quality (more expensive) 300W power supply or a 400W (if you can afford it). 250W is kinda shakey for the current breed of AMD chips (900MHz and above).

Agree, anything on that list and is a 300w should be fine.
