Depends on what you are doing with it. Outside of the CPU, the most current
draw will be the disk drives and the new ones draw very little power. Of
course a high powered graphics accelerator will draw a lot of power, but I
assume that doesn't apply here. Lots of memory will be negligible also.
I used to have a 233MHZ pentium, so-so graphics card, 2 five and 1/4 inch
hard drives, 1-floppy and a CDROM on a 220Watt supply.
