Will a eVGA 9800gtx work with Corsair's HX 520?

OK, First off I'm a n00b when it comes to adding new hardware to my comp. I recently purchased a eVGA 9800GTX from Newegg (hellyeah) and a Corsair HX 520psu. After purchasing the 9800gtx, I read that I need a 12v rail w/at LEAST 24amps or else it is not going to perform correctly. Then I checked Corsairs website and it says this about the HX520, QUOTE"Triple 12V Rails provide independent reliable power to the CPU, video card and other components with a combined rating of 50A (40A on 520W) maximum! Advanced circuitry design that automatically enables power sharing between the triple +12V rails in an event of overload on any single +12V rail." END QUOTE. But, all three rails are only 18 amps, and every forum that I read from Newegg says that I should have a 12v rail w/ said amps. Is this true?

You're fine. In fact, you're more than fine. The Corsair is an excellent power supply.

Thanks for the help, I was worried I was going to have to send it back for a more powerful psu.
