Q6600 draws 103 watts; QX6700 and QX6800 draw 130 watts mainly from the +12V rail. If you pair that with the 8800GTS which is a 103 watter, that means 233 watts on the +12V rail. The fans and motors of the HDD and CD/DVD drives also draw from the +12V rail. Peak consumption on the +12V rail could reach 30 amps. A 550W power supply with dual +12V rails delivering 18 amps per rail should run cool and stable.
Total wattage is now less important than +12V wattage because the processor and the major devices ALL draw from the +12V rail.

The minimum Power Supply I would get is 400 Watt.
If you have multiple harddrives and CD/DVD players, I would go with a 450 Watt Power Supply.
Good luck

It matters more as to what else is in the computer. Like five hard drives, big graphics card, couple DVD-CD drives, etc.. This all adds up.
