"What's the low-down on wattage requirements for dual systems. I read somewhere
that you need 300W. Doesn't it depend on how stuffed your case is with other
stuff, or is there some kind of extra stress placed by the second cpu?"

300 watts is recommended for any power system. Not needed though unless you have several harddrives and a full deck of add-in cards.

250 should do you fine, but go with 300 for the heck of it if you can afford it. ($40 more/less)
