It has been great for the rig I have described in my signature, but do you think it would be enough for two 9800gtx cards?

PSU for 9800GTX SLI
by duplo83 » Fri Jun 27, 2008 11:50 am
I've been tossing around the idea of SLI-ing a couple of 9800GTX cards. Does anyone know if I'd be pushing my luck to use this card?

Two of these or the GTX+ cards would be an awesome setup.
