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?

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?

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

700 watts is a bit overkill for those in SLI.
9800 GTX Power Requirements
Minimum of a 450 Watt power supply.
(Minimum recommended power supply with +12 Volt current rating of 24 Amp Amps.)
Minimum 550 Watt for SLI mode system.
(Minimum recommended power supply with +12 Volt current rating of 30 Amp Amps.)
