What power supply unit would be good for an ECS K7S5A with 900MHz Duron?

Checked all over ECS's website and searched on Google, but it was all fruitless. Im gonna install the combo into an old PB case that has a 230W or a 250W PSU in it. Am I gonna need more juice?
 
might work if you don't have too many peripherals. Check and see the combined output on the 3.3v and +5v lines. If it's probably around 150w you should probably be okay. For XP's the minimum combined wattage seems to be around 180w. If it were me, I'd give it a shot and see if it works. I don't think it can do any damage, up to you though. Install Motherboard monitor or something and monitor your voltage readings and see how it goes.
 
you should be ok on 250watts. there are lots of 120 watt power supplies that are AMD qualified for 900mhz duron and higher so 250 should be great
