Hi,
Just a quick question, I have 1 GTX 970 currently running off a Corsair GS800 PSU:
http://www.corsair.com/en/gs800w

I am thinking of getting another GTX 970
(Both would be Asus Strix editions), but I need to know whether this PSU will support it. Will I be able to overclock both cards too?

Other config:
CPU: i7 3770K @4.2Ghz
Cooler: Corsair H60
5 Fans
1 HDD

Thanks!

Yes! 800W is a lot of headroom per say. I could SLI 2 970s on my 635W PSU (With 3 fans, 2 HDDs, and a SSD)

It really helps that the 900 series is very power efficient.

Yes, you will be able to OC. That PSU has 65 +12v amps available (CPU, GPU's, HDD, Fans,etc, draw their
current from the +12v rail), considerably more than you need.
