More about : power supply problem build
tomahawk you should have at least 650 watt for your rig to be on safe side. Inadequate PSU in the most overlooked potential problem maker in new system builds. I have used both a 750 PSU ($130) and a 860 PSU ($240) both from PC Power & Cooling. I run the about the same options as you do except in the 750PSU rig, I have a 4870VGA and in the 860 Watt a 4870x2. No power problems whatsoever. Eliminate a number of potential problems and dig deeper to have adequate power.
