Hey guys 
I am very eager about upgrading my system and have been for a while. I don't have a set budget & just plan to get a part when i can afford it. I plan to sell my 6870 for about £120 and get the Gigabyte 480 SUPER OC
. But just for future reference I would like to go SLI two of these bad boys but I don't know if my PSU would be up to it? I have an Antec CP850 powering my system.
I know if I were to go SLI I would have to go Intel, which would mean buying SB. Probably just end up getting a 2500K and overclocking it. But taking that into account. The question crops up again, will a CP850 PSU power 2 x 480's overclocked and a 2500K overclocked? Or would I have to buy another PSU? Hope I don't have to because I doubt I will get it sold to anyone lol.
Thanks in advance if you can help me out
