I need some help choosing the right redundant power supply. I came across this 800W redundant power supply and want to know if it has enough power for my new build. I plan to install 2 Asus GeForce GTX 780 GPUs in a 4U rackmount chassis. I am concerned with the amperage on the 12V rail. The site says that this power supply is capable of 65A on the 12V rail. Is this enough for the 2 GPUs and other necessary system components? Where wattage is concerned, is 800W enough? I am relatively new to this field so any thoughts at all would be greatly appreciated.
Want to make sure PSU will power GPUs in 4U chassis

As long as that PSU has two 75 Watt 6-pin and two 150 Watt 8-pin PCI Express supplementary power connectors or four (6+2)-pin PCI Express supplementary power connectors it should be sufficient.
The link to that PSU says that it only has one 75 Watt 6-pin PCI Express supplementary power connector.

You'll need two of those adapter cables, that you've linked to, and one of these:
