The webpage above talks about how much power case components require and how to determine a proper psu size. The numbers give a a wide range and don't really list everything. Here's what I have in my case. Can anyone figure this out for me?
Athlon 2100+ cpu
AlphaPal 8045 HSF w/ modded TT SmartFan 2
ABIT KD7 Mobo
TDX 40X CDRW
Lite-On 16X DVD
Floppy Drive
RheoBus
Vantec Temperature Controller
60GB hdd 7200RPM
hdd cooler w/2 small fans
512 PC 3200 RAM
4 12" cold cathodes using 2 inverters
1 4" cold cathode
GeForce 3 Ti200 Vid Card
Turtle Beach 64MB sound card
56K Moden
Built-in USB 2
5 Case Fans (all with LEDs)
I give up! How can I possibly figure this out?

These are the instructions that came with my Thermalright SLK-800 cooler:
Assembly:
The assembly gestalltet itself just as simply as with the standard Slk-800. after the foil of the base plate was removed and the processor core with thermal compound moistened, leaves one the 6-Punkt-Halteklammer in the base noses to engage. Subsequently, the radiator box is aligned centrically on the base. By means of slotted bolt turners finally the catch side of the fixing clip down pressed to these on the base engages. A strammer contact pressure develops, whereby a good waermeaufnahme is ensured. Although the additionally existing PU Schaumpads provides for a safe seat on the processor, the PC should very carefully be transported and/or the radiators before transport be developed.

I've been using an Antec true power 430. Think I can get away with it? As for molex connectors, Most of the fans are connected with 3-pin to 3-pin extensions to the fanbus where they PLUG IN (No wire stripping).

I wish I had a good answer. What I did was get a particularly good price on the 12" ones so I ordered extra for my next case. I liked them so much, and a pair runs on a single inverter, I just plugged them in to see what they looked like. They lit up my room so I just had to keep them. I can use the keyboard in a darkened room and I don't touch type. As for the 4" it was already in the case and lights up my modded hsf that I just couldn't resist. OK, I know it's overkill!
By the way, how did you make the pics on your signature? They look great.
