Hi i have a Corsair 650 TX in my current rig but i will be buying a new rig this week.

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=BU-029-OB - with the asus p6 mobo and h70 cpu cooler

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HD-120-WD

Allready have a single ati 5770 card which i will be using.

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-023-NX and this case

I wont be adding any extra fans other than the ones that come with the h70 push pull.

Will my 650TX handle this? thanks Jon.

Yes it will, with a couple of hundred to spare.

My i7 920 4Ghz, HD4890 system uses 450w at max load so I expect yours to come in at about 400w, give or take a few watts.

It will be fine even if you were using a single GTX480, or xfire a pair of 5770/6850/5850
