Hi guys, I have a 5870 coming over the next couple of days, as well as a new I7 motherboard/Ram/processor combi. Seeing as I still have some cash banging around, I am contemplating getting another 5870 for crossfire. However, my current PSU is a two year old Corsair 520hx, which seems a little low for me.
I used a PSU calculator, which said at 90% usage the whole machine would be pulling 517 watts, which is a little too close for comfort. Should I get a new PSU? If so, which one would you go for? Bearing in mind that PSU money comes out of the second 5870 fund
