Well I'm currently looking into a watercooling build and going crossfire I've heard that a good powersupply can help with performance when it comes down to crossfire etc. Currently I have a no brand ATX 800Watt PSU.

I have found this PSU: http://www.ocztechnology.com/products/power_management/ocz_500w_700w_modxstream_pro_power_supply for a cheap price, I was just wondering will the cables be long enough for some lovely wire management in a Cosmos S?

I would really like to be able to have some nice wire management. :)

Thanks for reading.
 
If you click on the specifications and download the mechanical drawings PDF, it shows all the cable lenghts.
 
dont think that psu is going to be powerfull enough mate to cross fire 5870

Rubbish.

• 500 Watt or greater power supply with two 75W 6-pin PCI Express® power connectors recommended (600 Watt and four 6-pin connectors for ATI CrossFireX™ technology in • dual mode)
