One of the hard things about building a new computer is figuring out how big of a power supply you're going to need.  Too big and you're wasting money and too little and you're stuck having to return something and get a new one.  To help get around this the fine folks at Newegg have put out a handy dandy calculator which allows you to put in the components you have(or are buying) and they'll spit out a recommendation of how much power you'll need to run your system.  It's a nice little tool and should save you an extra trip (or two) to the store. 

Thanks to Lifehacker for the find (and for the other tips)
