What watts will i need for

i7 OC to 4GHz
6ghz 1600 Mhz
either:
radion 5870 or GTX295

Links to OC would be great, cheaper the better of course...but money isn't to much of a problem.

I have the exact same setup and am using a 750w corsair (GTX 295) but I advise waiting for nVidia etc to release their new cards if you want nVidia as this could more than likely decrease prices for the 295

would this do?

An 850 watt psu would be complete overkill. You could run either of those cards with the 650 watt be quiet:
