SLI Power

[Caramanos2000]

I have a 550 Watt rosewill non SLI psu powering a single 8800gts. I bought a thermaltake 250 watt drive bay PSU for the second 8800gts. Is this ok or should I get this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182069
CPU will be upgraded from a 4000+ AM2 to a 6400+ Black Edition.

I would go with the single 750w PSU, instead of adding a 250w just for the second gts.

But... why the Roswill? Price? I would recommend something more reputable like this OCZ 700w http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817341002

You want a good PSU if you have two 8800gts in SLI

I already bought the 250 watt so Im gonna go with that. I know there is better out there, If I had the cash id get it.

That's not a very reputable power supply either. It has excessive out of spec ripple, or voltage fluctuations, that may damage parts over time. Review that found that ripple:

And just in case somebody wants to point out the dozens of good reviews that OCZ PSU gets, BBQ made an excellent post why those PSUs reviews were improper:
