Power requirement calculator

Don't know if there's a power requirement calculater on the forum somewhere already, but I came across this one today and thought it might be useful.

I need to know if 400W will be powerful enough for my new build (see details in my sig).

I am looking for a modular PSU with stable voltages and a reasonably "green" footprint, so it doesn't suck down enormous amounts of power unnecessarily.

Having read a few reviews for this thing, I am pretty impressed by it. Just need to know if 400W would enough to power my new build.

Did you go for the Enermax in the end? As I would recommend them (Noisetaker range) or the Corsair HX520

I've settled for the Corsair HX520, because the Enermax SATA cables have 4-Pin Molex attached to them. This makes things a bit messy and IMHO defeats the purpose of a modular PSU.

So it's Corsair all the way.
