it's only rational to go for a safe margin, knowing that most PSUs are not very good and have in reality an output below advertised; add that all PSUs do degrade performance over time and having a borderline PSU is asking for problems; in the long run most hardware failures (toasts) come from a defective power supply, that is known for fact, at least among ppl who do not mystify these things. but then again, everyone is master of his decision, as the risk is always on the betting side..
