I'm curious to this, as a lot of technology changes, and becomes a bit on the power hungry side.

Currently, I run a PC Power and Cooling 850W, and was feeling like it's inadequate to power my Crossfire system.

Specs are:
Intel E6600
Intel D975XBX2
4x1GB OCZ Gold Rev. 2
6 hard drives (2 raptor, 2 caviar se, 1 spare seagate, 1 seagate 7200.10)
X1950XTX CF
3x 80mm case fans
8x 120mm fans
DDC-Ultra pump

I normally would go by what the manufacturer site says, regarding whats recommended. And in that case, it says that it's not on there. So, what do you say?

Edit: Forgot that last hard drive. :)

You're better than fine. The 850 is enough for pretty much anything you throw at it.

Bro... ;) I built a similar PC (only two hard drives instead of six), but with a Corsair HX620W. The thing rocks. Stable as hell. Voltages solid even when running Prime and 3DMark simultaneously.

A PCP&C 850W is actually a bit of overkill.

Yeah, I really like it. I was thinking about getting the 1KW-SR model. But, I don't think it would be really necessary, now would it? I guess I will be keeping it then! ;)
