Big enough PSU?

Im currently re-constructing my PC and getting a few upgrades, was curious if my PSU I have at the moment is good enough...

im thinking of running:

MB - Asus M4N82 Deluxe nForce 980a
cpu - AMD Phenom II X4 Quad Core 965
GPU - 2x Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 5850
SC - X-Fi Titanium, Fatl1ty (with front panel)
Cooling - Zalman resorator XT
Case - Cosmos 1100 Sport + 9 fans

and my PSU is currently Coolermaster 1000w, just wondered if its needed to upgrade to a 1200w...

Are you being serious? lol that psu won't struggle at all.

Lol.

You will be fine.

You could run that lot on a decent 750W with no trouble.

I love these threads, a classic case of an over spec'd PSU.

Kudos to the PSU manufacturers who made the 1K PSUs when there was no need for them
