I'm building a system and gotten pretty reliable information on power usage of all other components, expect can't find it for this motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813182173

Realistically how much wattage/draw can I except at idle and full load?
No add on cards; using integrated video. Floppy/USB will be disabled.
Will use both Nics and probably ipmi.
Using 3 sticks of 1.5V memory.

CPU will be L5630.
For the L5630; it's a 40 watt TDP 32nm CPU.
It'll take about ~10 watts idle and scale up from there with load.

Hard drive is: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820167027
From newegg:
idle: 75mW (TYP)
Active: 150mW (TYP)

No other components expect maybe keyboard/mouse (both PS/2)
