So I have this fancy vision of running dual 4830s in crossfire.

I have a MSI P45 Diamond mobo with either an e8400 or q9450. Not sure which one I will put in yet (buddy works for intel).
I will have 2 DVD burners (The LG's from Newegg)
2 HDD

My question is....
How much power will I need to run the cards? The whole system will be watercooled (Parts already in hand from previoius water cooled build)

Is 850w enough? Say a 4870x2 board, will that be enough?

Thanks for links to help or your own helpful information in advance!

There are good deals on PC Power and Cooling 750 and Corsair 750 PSU´s right now, you´ll have plenty with either.
