Do I need a new power supply?

Looking at getting 2x 970s with the Black Friday deals, I currently have

XFX 1050W Black Edition Pro '80+ Gold' Certified Modular Power Supply

Is that powerful enough for 2x970?

Thanks

yep

Easily powerful enough, they are very power efficient a good 750 will run both with out issues.

My 650w Strider Gold ran the setup in my sig with 2 970's so you'll be more than fine

I think the 'Yep' was to the 'Is that powerful enough for 2x970?' question.

Your PSU is way more than enough for 970 sli.

Doh! I was mainly worried about the coil noise but from what people have said I guess I will be fine. Thanks

Yeah sorry should have been clearer, you have more than enough

Remarkably, I've heard of people running SLI 970's on 650W PSUs! Doing that with a high end card would have seemed ridiculous even a year ago. 1050 gives you comfortable headroom.
