ive got a shuttle sn95g5 with the stock 240w psu
i jsut gathered the funds to buy a swiftech watercooling system
however, the pump runs on 12V, and im not sure that i have to power to run it as such...

right now, the system is as follows:
SN95G5
Radeon 9800XT
Belkin 802.11b PCI card
Stock Shuttle ICE 92mm cooling
Optorite 16X/DL DVD+/-RW drive
Hitachi 250gb SATA hard drive
Mitsumi FDD/ Flash card reader

will i have enough juice to run the swiftech pump, or should i wait until i have the case for a 110V mains pump and relay?
alternatively, is there a 1U PSU that i can jam in there that could power all this?
 
i've seen people with two raptors in raid with this shuttle. it might be okay, don't judge the silenx psu by the mere number of 240w. it is suppose to be used in servers so its a strong performer. hopefully you get a good psu, the bios reports my 3.3 and 5 rails at 3.18 and 4.75 :\

i know the radeon 9800 xt drains a lot and produces a lot of heat. that might be a concern.
