I am going to change out my video cards to an ATI 4890. Later I might want to add one more for crossfire. I will change out the MSI board to a Gigabyte P45 and try to OC the Q6600 to 3.6Ghz. The rest of the parts are in my sig. Will my Corsair be enough to supply the upgraded system?
 
haven't ran into any issues with my 520hx with an i5 and 4850 crossfire so i'd imagine you'd be ok
 
It'll be more than enough, I have a hx620 powering my i7 920 overclocked to 4ghz along with a ATI 5850
 
Plenty. Would probably power 4890s in crossfire, but there wouldn't be much headroom.

I did a search prior to posting and found that some of the posters upgraded their PSU to something more beefier. I posted this now because I found a Corsair 850w for $99 @ the newegg 72 hour sale. I don't have the funds to do a total system upgrade so I rather not upgrade the PSU if I don't have to. Thanks for the replies guys; I'll keep my HX620 :)
