psu, when will it be limited.

Im probably ok, im just making sure. I have a pc power and cooling 750 quad copper psu. Right now i have a nf68-t1, 8800 gtx, e6600, 2 western digital hd and an exos 2 lx, and 1 dvd rom on it. In terms of pumps, i have the koolance drive bay res and pump for the 1000 koolance systems, and a thermalchill 120.2 rad right here now (just came). there would be no problem with all that and 2 pumps on the psu? And yes soon i will have another 8800 gtx. Im just wondering the limit to this psu and when i should look for another one with maybe more power? thanks for any input

If you are looking for a more powerful PSU. I'm selling one for a good price.

I'm not a jerk so I won't sell you something you don't need. I think you are all set. If you don't feel safe, PM me for more information.

I have run the system in my sig with a PC Power & Cooling 750 watt. You're fine. The only reason I switched mine out was because I needed another PSU for another box and I planned on adding more drives in the near future. So if I were you, I'd stick with what you got.

To give you an idea, my machine with the single Dell monitor pulls 458watts idle and 580watts under full load. All four cores, and both video cards loaded as well. Plus some disk queries in the background. Trust me you have enough wattage. The key is to make sure that you aren't loading a PSU to 80% at any time, much less full time. Since you aren't, you are good for now.
