Header size for window

Hi all,

Building a new stud wall and will be putting a second hand timber window in it. It's 2.1m wide. Just wondering if anyone can link me to some span tables specifically for headers? The top plate above will have roof rafters sitting on it too.

Smaller openings are usually just 2 90x45's on edge yea? But I'm assuming I'll need something bigger for this?

Cheers
