ok, so im wondering if the Seasonic 350w Gold PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

would be enough to power a Phenom II X4 965 BE and a LP Radeon HD 7750 (or if it can power one, would it be able to power 2 crossfired?)

1, yes, cutting it REALLY close though. And that PSU is not your normal ATX for factor.
2, no. But its not a good idea to Xfire low-mid range cards

I use AMD and didn't want the fanboy issue.

It will still run 1 , the power draw on that card is low.Those recommendations are inflated for the consumer.

I tend towards AMD too mostly for the OCing potential, but yeah, in this case the lower heat and noise is important in a smaller chassis.

As Blackbird said. And they consider low quality chinese PSU too, which Seasonic is far from.
