Dude.

Why not get the Corsair HX520W.....it's all you need.

Newegg.com - CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX ATX12V v2.2 and EPS12V 2.91 520W Power Supply 100 - 240 V UL, CUL, CE, CB, FCC Class B, TUV, CCC, C-tick - Retail

Well the point you are trying to make is correct, but that statement isn't quite true. You've forgotten about PSU efficiency. Currently, most high quality PSUs are about 85% efficient at best...which means 400 watts would really use 460w of power :p

well for one thing, i just found out that ATI says the RV670 GPU consumes 75w. So times 75w by three n u get 300w used + other components.

what makes u think 520w can handle 2 HD 3870 x2 in Crossfire, aka 4 GPUs?

EDIT:

geez u guys r so confusing........."get this, get that" plz let's just come to a final agreement on which PSU is best suited for me, ok?

ok how many say i should get HIPER 630w?

Well TBH if it was me I'd go the extra stretch and get the Corsair HX620W.

The Xclio does look good, but I have also seen a Corsair HX520W powering a Q6600 B3 and 2 2900XT's in crossfire.....

I know, but did not want to confuse him any more than he is.:)

i'm not sure that works both ways, cuz then a 60% efficiancy 400 watt could actually be 700 watt

just get the xclio
and for the record the Corsair 520hx has more amps then 610 silencer
