Hi All
I wanted to ask you that which psu will be better: a corsair TX950 or PC Power and Cooling TurboCool 1KW SR? Secondly can PC Power and Cooling TurboCool 1KW SR support two ati radeon 5970 in crossfire?
Hope to hear from you guys soon. Thanks

Both are solid choices. I personally would get the 950TX. It is available on newegg for only $139 as well. And yes, it should power dual 5970s, although I can't imagine a situation in which you would need such a setup.
 
They're both PSUs made by reputable brands, But the PC Power and Cooling Turbo-Cool 1KW SR only has four six pin PCI-e, and for a HD 5970 CFX setup you'd need two six pin and two eight pin. The TX950W has more connectors, and should be able to handle a HD 5970 CFX setup, although I'd go for something like a Corsair HX100W to be sure.
