Some my 2 1/2 year old silverstone 750w doesnt seem up to the task any more as under 3d load i get instant power offs.

So a good, somewhat cheap PSU for the following

6gb DDR3
P6T Deluxe
2 x evga GTX 260's, mild overclock
2 x 74gig raptors
1 x 750gb samsung
2 opticals
6 fans

my initial thought is a 850w corsair but want to see what advice the community has.
 
well i sucked it up and bought a new corsair 850w.

I'm sure its the PSU causing the current problems becasue the problem has carried over from my Q6600 rig to my i7. Both video cards max out a 80c on load, and MB. CPU and RAM are all new, but still the same problem.

So either the psu or one of the 2 cards, i'll find out when i install the new corsair.
