I'm going to be using up to 3 TECs, 1 for CPU, up to 2 for GFX (only 1 right now). I'm going to switch out my Antec TrueBlue 480W psu and replace it with this. Would this psu power my system AND power TEC's?

SilverStone ST85F (850W / 900W peak, +12V1 thru V4, 18A a piece (72A total)

it just might, it´ll be nice if you can post the watts of the peltiers
 
Oops. 320W for CPU, 168W for GFX. I might get another 168W... prolly not immediately.
 
320+168+168=656 thats a constant 77% load on the PSU for peltiers alone, not to mention the entire rest of the computer. if you add another 168 you will be around 98% rated capacity 24/7... which is ok if this PSU is a secondary one, and you dont mind if it melts. 824watts@12v= 69 amps on the 12v rail
