Hmmm....very good.
Suggestion :

1. Get a X38 or X48, if you are planning to Xfiring your system with 2 HD4850s.
Your PSU is enough for 2 HD4850s.
P45 can only deliver 2 8x each on Xfire while X38 and X48 can 2 16x.

2. You can reduce your PSU to 550W, if you are not planning to Xfiring your system.
