Solve : How much power do I need??

Answer»

The main problem is my son wants to be running two monitors but I'm not sure how big of a power SUPPLY he needs.
His setup is going to be:
8800gt
4gb ram
windows vista ultimate
amd quad core 9850
a 500gb seagate harddrive
the gaming case has 2x 90mm fans
He wants to be using a 20 lcd monitor and a second 17" lcd monitor
How MUCH power do you think this system would need?  Any kind of estimate would be helpful, I just don't want his birthday gift to be running out of power when he goes to start it up.

If I forgot any important parts tell me.

Oh, and if you have any suggestions on a specific power supply please POST it.Give this site a look.--------->Herea 500w power supply will be plenty. but, if you wish to future-proof it a little, i suggest going with a 750w.Thanks a bunch, just don't want one to fry and take SOMETHING out with it.Hope he has a nice birthday.
