Hi! I was wondering if this PSU http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168... is capable of powering 2 EVGA GTX760 in Sli.

For a system using two GeForce GTX 760 graphics cards in 2-way SLI mode NVIDIA specifies a minimum of a 700 Watt or greater system power supply that has a maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 50 Amps or greater and that has at least four 6-pin PCI Express supplementary power connectors. Some of the GeForce GTX 760 cards have a single 8-pin or two 8-pin or one 6-pin and one 8-pin PCI Express supplementary power connectors.

Total Power Supply Wattage is NOT the crucial factor in power supply selection!!! Sufficient Total Combined Continuous Power/Current Available on the +12V Rail(s) rated at 45°C - 50°C ambient temperature, is the most critical factor.

Overclocking of the CPU and/or GPU(s) may require an additional increase to the maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current ratings, recommended above, to meet the increase in power required for the overclock. The additional amount required will depend on the magnitude of the overclock being attempted.

The OCZ ZS Series 750W (OCZ-ZS750W) power supply unit, with its maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 54 Amps and with two 6-pin and two (6+2)-pin PCI Express supplementary power connectors, is sufficient to power your system configuration with two GeForce GTX 760 graphics cards in 2-way SLI mode.

OCZ says it's Haswell ready.

It uses independent voltage regulation for the main rails so the PSU should not exhibit instability when the +12V rail has an extremely light load as would happen during Haswell C6/C7 low power states.
