So I figure this will be the easiest way to ask this. I used this tool on http://extreme.outervision.com/PSUEngine to calculate the recommended psu wattage, but is this number accurate? It seems very low. The system I'm shopping for a PSU for is a E6600, 4x1GB ram, 4350 Video card, and 6 hard drives. It's giving me under 200W of power.. Would this mean i'd be perfectly fine to just use a cheapo 400W power supply?
The only reason I question it, is because putting in the build of my regular desktop, it only says about mid 300's..I'd think it would need more
