ok i kind of acted a bit dumb when i went and got a psu, i ended up buying a carsair 550w vx

now i found i need some were near 700w+, no i kind of getting some one i know to buy the 550w off me so i will get my money back but now i need to look at what psu i need

my set-up is going to be:

cpu - Q9450
hdd - western digital caviar, 2x 500GB
mobo - XFX MB-N780-ISH9
ram - 4x 1gb patriot 800mhz
gpu - 8800 gtx, one of them but upgrading to 3 over time (when i get cash)

and a dvdrw, dvd rom and card reader, i am not planning on overclocking i just want a good system thats going to last
 
Why buy 2 more 8800GTX cards when the 9800's are right around the corner? And according to nvidia you need around 1000w psu to cover 3 GTX's.
