Very nice PSU's but somewhat of an overkill for a CT60 yes?

At the moment I am using an old 250W ATX PSU that was in my PC, it was playing up so I bought a brand new 550W Q-Tec off ebay that was very cheap, and the PC's PSU went inside the Falcon (minus its case and I cut down the heatsinks).

A while ago I did some calculations and came to the conclusion that the CT60 Falcon needs about 80-90W. The Falcon motherboard itself, I dont know, but the original PSU may have a label on it indication maximum wattage (or look underneath the Falcon on the sticker, it should say). Other than that its easy to calculate the rest, as hard drives, CD drives and even floppy drives have their power requirements printed on the label.

I will look at my stuff tonight and see what I come up with. I am planning on building a power meter because I also want to find out how much power my PC is drawing, and also my TT because that is turned on 24/7.
