Which power supply?

Couldn't decide if this should go under Video Cards, or Power supply.. So I may post in both spots. I'm going be getting a system that has 2x ATI Radeon X1950 256mb running in crossfire. However, every where I look ATI product support, newegg, reviews - Yada yada.. I can't find the required power supply wattage. Does anyone have a clue?
 
Why would you spend the money on two X1950's for Crossfire now? A single 8800 GTS 640MB will do better in pretty much all applications, and a single 8800 GTX will do better in /all/ applications for the same or only slightly more money. These are old tech, and /only/ a good buy if you don't have the money for an 8800 series card in you budget, which means a single card system, as with two you're there to nearly there price wise.

I have no idea of exact power draw, but I'd guess 600 watts or so, to be safe, with some headroom.

Again, really not a good idea.
