I think you are looking at 700-750W for just the cards. From there add in your CPU and I usually use 50W for the rest of the system. (You'll need more if you are powering a "real" water pump, lights, have lots of hdds like myself, etc.) 925 Stock if you have a 125W AMD CPU, 875W for an Intel quad. A 1kW Gold should be fine, I'd go higher if you have OCing plans.

Thanks, awesome breakdown of exactly what I needed to know...
I am already overclocking the FX-8320 to 4.5Ghz and plan to overclock the cards so I think I need to invest in a 11000-1200Watt unit. An extra 50 bucks could go a long way down the road...
