Will an OCZ 850W PSU work with
An AMD Phenom II X$ 955 BE (125W)
AMD Radeon 6870
One case fan
2 hard drives
And a Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3?
 
A 650 watter is more than enough for that system even after you add a 2nd GFX card

500 Watt or greater power supply with two 75W 6-pin PCI Express® power connectors recommended (600 Watt and four 6-pin connectors for AMD CrossFireX™ technology in dual mode)

Would suggest one of these:

$70 650W XFX Core Edition http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817207014
$85 750W XFX Core Edition http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817207015

Both get a 9.5 Performance Rating on jonnyguru.com
