Hmm, at 115V AC, US power voltage, that's a whole 2 amps. This may not be enough for a PPC card and you other cards/expansions. I may be tempted to go with a 350Watt to be sure is has a bit to spare.

The newer ones are not what they used to be. Switching types seem to be less efficient at higher output %. not sure.
