The best resource (better than the ones posted) is: http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/white_papers_and_tech_docs/26003.pdf (6MB PDF file).

Off the top of my head I would recommend a 350W PSU; too big is better than too small. My XP2000+ system has a 300W one but only one HD and one CD-RW drive (those together use about 45W as I remember).
