Sometime this week I'll be getting an Athlon XP 1800+ and some more 256mb pc2001 ram. I have not had any problems with my current power supply but, I wanted to know if my power supply was enough for this much ram and this cpu?

300W
+3.3V = 20A
+5V = 30A
+12V = 10A
+5VSB = 2A
-5V = 0.5A
-12V = 0.8A

I think your PSU will be good enough for yor set-up. I was runnign a generic 300watt psu w/ lower amp rating for the 3.3v and +5v prior to my Antec 480W True power and never had any problems w/ it (system in sig).
