Will a 520W PSU be enough?

Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro CPU Cooler (Socket 775)

Asus P5N-E SLi nForce 650 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard

Intel Core 2 DUO E6400 "LGA775 Allendale" 2.13GHz (1066FSB) - Retail

GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC6400C4 800MHz Ultra Low Latency DDR2 Dual Channel Kit (GX22GB6400UDC)

BFG GeForce 8800 GTS OC 320MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail

Corsair HX 520W ATX2.2 Modular SLI Compliant PSU (CMPSU-520HXUK)


I will also be powering 3 HDDs and a PCI soundcard. I may also want to go SLI in the future.

Will the 520W psu be enough, and how does the above spec look? I'll be aiming to overclock it, but only a moderate amount (hopefully to around 2.7-2.8).

Also is the above motherboard better than the new Abit Fatality, I noticed the fatality appears to only have PCI-E 8x, but I do prefer Abit.

Get the Tuniq Tower and OC it to 3.2ghz+, the CPU should be easily capable of that at the very least. The PSU should be fine for that rig, though not sure about an SLI setup

I have a similiar setup:

2gb CORSAIR XMS2
8800GTS 640MB

I have a seasonic 420w PSU and it runs really well, rock solid and no problems, although not sure with the sli

I really am on the fence. If I can save £30 by getting the 520W then I will, but I don't want to end up having to buy a new psu if i decide to go sli in the future.

Might be worthwhile in the future, if you get the 520 you might regret it.
