C2D E8400 - possibly going to OC it to 3.6Ghz -
Gigabyte P45DS3R (is p45ds3p worth the extra 20$? )
HDD Seagate 500Gb
HDD Maxtor 250Gb - old one -
2x2Gb RAM Mushkin X-Line Redline PC2-8000 1000Mhz
Scythe Ninja 2 CPU Cooler
Pioneer DvD Burner
3x fans, from Antec p182 case ( is this enough? )

 

GPU: ATI Radeon 4870. But aiming for a 2nd one for crossfire in a few months when the price drops. (Asus, Saphire, or Gigabyte? )

 

Ive been lookin at Corsair TX750 to be able to run the 4870's in crossfire, will that be enough ?

 

And btw, feel free to comment about this comp setup. It will be greatly appreciated ^^

 

Thanks a lot

Yes on sapphire website they say the minimum is 600 wtats for 4870 in crossfire. The corsair tx750w is a very good brand and it has all the necessary plugs. I used it in my build look in my sig ;)
