Asus sli board power recommendations ...

I know a lot of you, like me, are curious as to how much wattage we need for possible sli configuration. From asus's webpage ... they were nice enough to include three different setups ,,, scroll to the bottom of the page.

The pc i am building is somewhere between light and medium load ... but I think I should still invest in the antec true 550 psu. But money is tight because of christmas, and down grading to a 480 watt would be nice, but I am sure next round of graphic cards are gonna demand more power ...

3500+ 90 nm (althought the prices have gone up 60 to 70 bucks today ) might just get the 130 nm chip

6600gt pci-e ... maybe 6800gt if I can swing it, but I doubt it. Christmas is killing me. Might get a 6600gt now and another a few months down the road.

Nforce4 mobo ... probably the sli one in the title post.

Audigy2 zs sound card

Antec true 550w ... might downgrade to 480w.

Logitech z2200 speakers

74g raptor ... bought, still sealed in box

nec 3500a dvd burner ...bought, still sealed in box

Lian li p65b case ... bought, freaking awesome.

Corsair xms pc 3200 512x 2

Logitech mx duo elite keyboard and mouse, bought

Samsung 710t lcd

Windoes XP pro ... got for free from old school

... and some other crap that my wallet cant afford.

I am buying the psu, sound card and speakers sometime this week ... I just have to wait till my old computer is sold.
