Hi

I am building a new system ,and halfway there ,specs are -


30 inch Dell 3007 WFPHC
Asus Stryker Exreme
Intel 6600 Quad core
2 X 8800 GTXS
4 x 120 bg Hdd's in raid 0
Creative XFI Fatality
G.SKILL 4GBPQ PC2-6400 4GB 2x2048MB DDR2-800

My current Machine -

CMV 22inch LCD
Asus A8R32 MVP Deluxe
AMD X2 4800
4gb generic ram
2 x Ati 1900XT's in crossfire
4 x 120Gb HDD's in raid 0
Creative XFI Fatality

Now the powersupply I am currently running is Silverstone ST75ZF 750W Power Supply http://www.pccasegear.com.au/prod4753.htm ,I have allready spent enough money and gone way overboard,will my Current PSU run my new system? if so I will be very happy bcause it will at least save me a few hundred dollars,and I honestly dont want to buy a new PSU if it can be avoided,.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

well with 750W im pretty sure you wont run into any issues, however, im not sure about it if your gonna go crazy on overclocking both 8800's, and your cpu, as i dont kow off hand the total wattage being drawn under those circumstances. But hell, you should be sorted pretty decently

Thanks for the input guys ,thats a big relief ,because when I went to Crossfire I only had a 550 watt Antec back then and it blew up ,with a big bang and a blue flash,I thought I fried my system ,I didnt want to make the same mistake again.

Cheers
