I used the PSU calculator sticky thread and I think I got false results. Here's the system I'm building-
*I7 920 SLBEJ - which I plan on OC'ing to 3.4 and cooling with a *Thermalright Ultimate 120 extreme 1366 RT Rev.B
*ASUS P6T Deluxe v2
*CORSAIR TR3X6G1600C7D 6GB 1600 DDR3
*CrossFire XFX Radeon HD 4890 XT
*Western Digital WD1001FALS 1TB SATA2 7200rpm 32MB Hard Drive
*LG GGW H20L Super Multi Blue BLU RAY BD-R
After I typed everything into the calculator to the best of my knowledge, it came out to 497W.
That seems a bit low for an overclocked CPU and two graphics cards. Any suggestions? I would love to hear some ideas or what you would buy.
One more question- does anyone think I need a cooler for my video cards?
