hi, i have a gtx 260 core 216, with a core i7 920 and a 10000 rpm hard drive, with 8gb ram 1600 mhz.

in this moment i have a 700w psu, with 50 amp on the 12v rail.


i am planing to buy another gtx 260 core 216, but i want to know if this psu is enough or if i need to buy another one :(


thank you very much

Can someone comment on whether the BFG gtx 260 OC Maxcore 55 will work in SLI (x2) mode with an OCZ 700W ModXstream 80+ certified PSU? I'm reading mixed info and want to confirm if this will work (and work without issues or hiccups) before I crack open the second video card.

Other specs:

i7 920 3.6ghz on an Asrock X58 Extreme MB
12gb OCZ Gold DDR3 1600
1tb WD Black Caviar
Samsung S223L burner

Thanks much for any help!!
