Generally the model number will have the wattage embedded in it.
For example: Model ATX-350-12V
The 350 is the wattage.

Yay! Thx that worked :) Heh now to figure out if I should bother with the 250Watt ATX Or leave it at AT 220 W? any suggestions?? its a pII 200 I believe... or 233... Not sure offhand. And will serve files (Mp3's from ftp/apache, possibly serve as some sort of firewall... depending... i have a router... and um.. not much else). So which size of PS do I need offhand do you think?
