Mr. Garber,
Like many of the other students I had a hard time finding the Wattage specs for RAM & the Motherboard. I have an estimate and an adjustment as you can see above. Also, I found a PSU calculator on the web and this is the printout.
I am sending you the link to this so maybe you can pass it along to the other students - it could come in handy.
Thanks
Steve Vender.
