While you don't need a huge supply, one bigger than your current needs gives you more room to play with later on, if you have to add something, or the power supply gets a bit sick. The wattage is the capacity of what it can deliver, not that it's always going to draw 400 Watts from the mains and be a drain on your electricity bill. -- (This box runs FC5, my others run FC4 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
