If you're burning out a 300W P/S with just a few components, I'd have to
think that at least one piece of your hardware has a fault in it.  I could
see this happening if you were running a fast Athlon (those things
apparently take over 70 Watts of power), but not much else..  I think I'd
just recommend getting a better power supply.  Also, do you have enough
ventilation?  Maybe something overheated..
