Will the PSU handle this?

Currently I have a Antech TruePower 550w. This is powering my 3800+ single core, 2gb corsair xms, wireless card, audigy sound card, 2 dvd drives, 1 74gb raptor, 1 400gb seagate, and 1 7800gtx 512mb. I want to know if this PSU will be able to handle the same system if I add another 7800gtx 512mb to run in SLi. I already have the card, but I'm hectic to add it in till I know. I usually play CS:S/HL2, BF2, and BF2142.

Thanks!
 
Is it a truepower or truepower 2.0?

Truepower original = no
Truepower 2.0 = yes
 
Yes it is an original =\

Looks like I will need to pickup a new PSU :(

Corsair 520

Would that Corsair handle the system? I plan to upgrade to a c2d e6400 and P5N-E will this PSU handle it?

That Corsair would handle 3 systems like that. It would power QE6800, 2x8800GTX SLI; 4GB ram, 4-5 HDDs etc. It's excellent power supply, one of the best you can get at the moment (well, it's built by Seasonic, that means something).
 
Thanks! Going to order now. Just wish i could get it local. I got the card staring at me and I want to put it in soo bad. :(
