I found a few 120mm fans lying around in my garage and was wondering if I could use them safely or not. I think they might draw too much power. The rating on them is .9 amps so I figure that's 11watts?!? (0.9ax12v = 10.8W) I'll be running them in my new system which will have an Enermax 365P-VE 350W psu. I was also thinking of having two of these fans on a fanbus with two 80mm as well (not sure of rating on those 80mm's yet). Am I asking too much of my PSU here or will I be fine? Thanks :)

Dunno how many HD's your running and other components. But a 350w is plenty, with a full system there should be plenty to spare.

I'll be running just one HD--Maxtor 7200rpm ata 100 30gb--along with:

ASUS a7v133
duron 800 (oc'ed probably)
256 mb pc133
geforce 2mx
4x4x32 cd-rw
sb live!

I figure it's probably a low-demand system when it comes to power consumption, but wanna run it cool.
