I am thinking of getting an atomiswave. What power supply should I use? I know that it uses +5V and +12V but how much current does it need, and where should I find a correct power supply?

Alright, back again with THE IMMORTAL JOHN HANCOCK
You can buy a simple switching PSU for about $15
Would something like this work?

You can always have more amps / watts than you need. Case in point PC power supplies. You take a 500 watt supply, and your system only draws 250? Golden. Good to keep it in the middle of the max wattage as is.
Amps are generally the same as NexusX said below. Think of a circuit breaker. You have a 15 amp fuse and you have headroom to spare amp wise? Golden
Yeah that PSU should be more than enough for Atomiswave. I think the one I use only pulls 5A and it's fine with that board.
