Hey guys, need some expert advice. I'd just swapped my 3rd rig from a Sharkoon T28 case to an NZXT Phantom 410 case. I don't know what possessed me, but I was too lazy to take out my SilverStone Op1000 PSU, and since I have a Seasonic SS-850AT Bronze lying around, I decided to go with it since it had a longer CPU power cable which would make it easier for me to route it thru the back. This is my PSU-

Anyway, when all is done, it suddenly occurred to me that I may be pushing the PSU too much with my recent upgrades. Here's the full system spec-
C2Q X9650 @3.7ghz
Asus Maximus II Formula
2x 2GB KHX DDR2 PC8500
Sapphire HD6990 + MSI HD6970 Ligthning
1.5TB WDC Green
1TB Hitachi Deskstar
1x BR ROM Combo drive
1x DVD RW drive
1x red LED Strip/light
4x 120mm cae fans (intend to get 3 more for better airflow)
64bit Win7 HP
Other than the fans, I do not believe I'd be doing anymore upgrades to this rig. So, is the Seasonic SS-850AT enough?
