the PSUs generally have the maximum power details on them so you should be able to work out the load from that.
I think generally it's 5v/3A and 12v/1.6A.
Just pulled three sr98 and one dsp-508 ST power supplies from my psu junk box and none have any indication of output on the pcb.
Fortunately one of the sr98s still has a bracket attached, and the sticker on there is says DC 5V 3A, DC 12v 0.9A
Input is 240V @ 0.4A. 96W in nearly 26W out at full load :shock:

I just checked a couple of mine, the DSP 508 is 5V/3A & 12v/1A, the other one, a Tokin has no output details on it. I also looked on exxos site and that's where I likely got 12v/1.6A from as that's whats on an ASP PSU.
No wonder they get toasty :)
