Hi, dont mean to be patronizing but power rating isn't everything in short it does determine maximum volume, however is the 300 watt systems your looking at measure in pmpo, or rms, as only rms figures are worth looking at.

A friend has a creative labs 5200 system on his computer and for the price is it pretty decents.

it is worth looking at the snr, signal to noise ratio on these speaker systems the higher Db the better as you will get less distortion.

Finnaly remember that sound card is as important a cheap and cheerful creative 5.1 live value for around £20 will make a huge difference from on-board sound which include cmss for up mixing 2 channel audio to 5.1 surround which is handy for music and analogue tv.
