ThermalTake Xaser III and 350w PSUs?

[Stewart]

So a 350w PSU, or to be more specific, a quality 350w PSU, such as the Antec SmartBlue 350, is more than enough for running the average system.

But will I need a little more grunt, to run my new system?

I'm getting one of those ThermalTake Xaser III cases, very big, 7 internal case fans, hardcano, as well as an 9800XT, and the normal stuff, Hard Drive, DVD, CD Writer, and a cold cathode or two.

Do I need to play it safe, and go with the TrueBlue 480w?

What you reckon?

I would get the branded 400W+ PSU myself, good for peace of mind as well as stability even though the Antec 350W should be up to it. Anyway I'd go for something more like the Sonata myself, thread below...
