Quick question. Current system is as listed below. Planning to upgrade to a dual core Opteron 170 (might wait for AM2 though since then I'll be ready for quad core) and OC it to 2.5GHz, PCI-Express motherboard (haven't decided on SLI or Crossfire yet but not getting two cards to start either way), and either a 7900GTX or an X1900XT.
Currently have a 430W Thermaltake power supply thats probably almost 3 years old. Also will most likely be getting a 5th hard drive and hopefully changing out the 80GB for a 74GB Raptor. So with all of that, do you think I need to upgrade my power supply? I know for dual cards (not sure I'm doing it anyway) I'll need a 550-600W. I do plan to get the Physx chip though.
