Alright so i currently have a Corsair 650TX PSU.
I have a Q9550, 6gb RAM, 3 SATA HDs, and a few 120mm fans.
I have 1 GTX260 in the system now, and i was wondering if the PSU would handle a 2nd GTX260?

260 SLI pulls more than 280SLI or 285SLI, up to about +12V@32A,
you have a max of +12V@52A, so up to +12V@20A for CPU, mobo, HDD's etc.

If you didn't already own the TX 650W, I would recommend the Corsair TX 850W for $120, however you do, so go ahead & use it.

The TX is a high performance PSU so you "should" be ok.

yeah i really meant for this to be a "budget" build of some sort, but i got the 2nd GTX260 for $100 :p
