Power supply strong enough for a ECS K7S5A?

Do you think that a Dynapower power supply out of a In-win case would have enough power for a
ECS K7S5A?. Its specs:

3.3v - 20a
5v - 30a
12v -15a
 
What all you going to be running with that board? How many watts is the power supply?

I have a 300 watt PSU running this.
Asus A7v266-e
AMD 1600+ XP
256 MB pc2100 Micron
Asus GeForce 2 mx 400
1x 30GB Maxtor Diamond Max 7200
2x 60GB Ibm120Gxp in Raid 0
Creative 12x10x32
Aopen 12x8x32
Asus 50x Cd rom
1x Blue light
2x Hard drive coolers
2x 80mm case fans

I had to cut and splice some connectors off an old PSU to even connect all this stuff. I have been running the powersupply for about 2 months now this way. It's an HEC btw. If you have a good 300 watt powersupply you shouldn't have a problem, or I wouldn't think so. Hopefully that helps you out. IF it's over 300+ watts, you shouldn't have any probs at all. If it's 250, you might have to get a new one. My old 250 wouldn't power up the system without the RAID, my buddy had a generic 300 watt that wouldn't power his up. I would recommend getting a AMD, or Intel recommended powersupply, then you shouldn't have a problem.
Hope that helps
