You don't need 1200W, don't listen to those people. You actually only need 584W under full load, but to be on the safe side I would go with a 750W+ PSU, in case you decide to overclock or add more components.

I came to that conclusion using the Q9300, 2x DDR2 Modules, 2x 9800GX2's in SLI, 2 SATA Drives, 2x DVD-Burners, 4x 120mm fans, 1x PCI Card, and under 100% load.
