Would my current 850w thermal take black widow be sufficient for a single 480 gtx. The rest of the system includes two optical drives, two ssd in raid, one normal HD, 6 gb ddr3, asus xonar, and core i7 940. I run everything at stock just want everything to be stable
 
more than enough... just dont do SLI if you dont want your PSU to explode in a week or two... lol
 
I wouldn't think twice about running two to be honest. 3 of these at load on Dirt 2 drew about 900~ watts with a 980x.
