Default Seasonic X-750 enough for 2x5870 OCed?

Seasonic X-750 with the following parts:

i7 920 D0 @ 4.0GHz
G.Skill Trident 2000 9-9-9 @ 2.0GHz
HD5870 @ 950/1250
HD5870 @ 950/1250
4x2TB 7200rpm HDD

I know it would be more than enough for 2xHD5870 at deafult (188 TDP each, plus ~210-220W from 4.0GHz i7), but I'm not really sure about running both at 950MHz -or maybe a little more- (which hits near 240-250W of real draw power each).

Thanks

Should be more than enough.
One 5870 and i7 920@4 GHZ require 350W AC and one stock card requires 160W during Fur
I doubt your system requires more than 500W DC.

I probably wouldn't buy that PSU up front for that system though. Something around 70A would probably be more appropriate, and there are some great prices in the 850W range these days... HX850, Seasonic S12D, etc.
