In a few days I will be getting my hands on a 4890. I currently own a 4870 which will be going to my brother but he wont be around for a few weeks so I was toying with the idea of crossfiring the two for a bit.

Will my current power supply be enough to power them both? (+ an E8500 and 2 hard drives)

Also will I run into any problems I should know about? From what I understand this should work but the 4890 will underclock itself to 4870 speeds.

Thanks!

Your power supply is adequate for Crossfire.
As long as you have a Crossfire motherboard, you shouldn't have any problems.
