What can an Opus 120 power?

Hi

As the topic may suggest, I'm wondering how much the Opus 120w can handle. Every PSU calculator I use seems to overshoot the 120w by miles, but yet I see people powering system, that in my opinion, is more powerful than the one I'm thinking about putting in to my car (well, actually, my dads car, we're both just sharing this account

)

Therefore I turn to you guys, will the Opus be able to power the following:

ASUS P5V-VM DH VIA P4M890 S-775 M-ATX
INTEL CELERON 326 2.53GHZ 256KB 533MHZ SOCKET775
DIMM DDR2 256MB PC2-4200 533MHZ, KVR

Best Regards
Fredrik

what else ya got? USB devices? What's your screen solution?

Yeah, I'm tired and realized I forgot some stuff

There's also a 3.5" 200Gb hardrive, mouse and keyboard (PS2?) I was planning on running a Lilliput 7" on the integrated graphic circuit.

My dad also want a GPS sometime in the future.

Eh, it's always better to have more power than not enough. But I can see where you're coming from. My system on a wattage calc says it needs 237 watts, but I'm using a 160watt DC to DC just fine.

I'd say 120w may not be enough, but something 150w or greater would probably do fine.

I get somewhere around 180 depending on how many USB devices are attached. Thank you for the information. If anyone else has something to add, feel free to do so.
