From that very link:

"Connectors:
20 Pin, 20+4 Pin, 24 Pin, 4 Pin 12 V, 6 Pin PCI Express, 6+2 Pin PCI Express, 8 Pin 12 V, Floppy Drive, SATA I

24/20-pin x1 (20pin convertible), ATX 4+4 pin (4 Pin/8 Pin) X 1, PCI-Express 6 pin X 2, SATA X 6, Molex 4 pin X 6, Floppy X 1 "

I assume, then that it only has 2 6pin PCIe connectors? A lot of conflicting information. (As an example my 1050W has 6 8-pin PCIe connectors, of which I use 4)

Does claim to have two 12V rails each at 36 Amps, totals 864 W, so it should be able to handle powering two very powerful cards along with the rest of your system, even if you do use adapters.

nah i bought the psu last year new in ther box for around 65 with free shipping also a friend of mine who looked at the psu before i installed it into my pc said that its designed so that one 12volt rail is for pcie and the other is for other things he could be wrong tho. also from what i can tell both 6 pin pcie conectors are dfrawing power from a single 12 volt rail

RCguitarist is correct. Most PSU's will advertise if they are SLI/crossfire ready/capable but 750W is generally the minimum amount needed. But again as he stated easiest way to find out is to see if you've got enough pci-e connectors.
