I am looking to build an almost new system and wondering how much power I might need. Here is the setup:

AMD FX-8150 Zambezi
GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD5
G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 32GB
Radeon HD 6900 GPU
DVD/CD Rom might add Blu-Ray
x3 Hard drives w/ room for expansion
Hydro series H80
Not sure which case yet:
Xigmatek Elysium Black
AZZA Genesis 9000
NZXT Phantom PHAN-001RD Red Steel
COOLER MASTER CM Storm Series Trooper

Of course several things plugged into USB's and such.
And this is the PSU I am looking at:
RAIDMAX RX-850AE

Which 6900 series video card are you getting? That will determine how much power you need.
 
I would go with a 600-650 watt unit from a reputable company such as corsair, antec, pc power and cooling, xfx, silverstone.
