i5 750 plus 8 gig PC3 12800C8 1600mhz what would be the min PSU I could use

A decent 700W PSU should be more than enough for 2x 5770. What brand was it and was it full of dust?

This, I have been running 2x5770 on a 600W Coolermaster iGreen psu just fine.

I ran crossfired 5770s with a 520w psu, and total system draw at load was just over 300w.

well the gigabyte is a 580watt unit the 700watt was unbranded, so I would not like to say how well it delt with the load, but thanks for your reply's
