Well you didn't say what cpu you have but guessing an AMD X2 3800+ using the PSU calculator you are using about 420w without an overclock. So I would say no.

That PSU is borderline, or not enough. For one, it claims 40A on the 12V rails, but it's actually limited to 30A total between the two rails. However, if you do use all 30A, you won't be pulling anything on the 3.3V and 5V rails.
If you do it, you'd have to make sure that both GTs are runnign stock (400/1000), and even then, it would be CLOSE. |

Darkfox im running a very similer thread about the liberty 400w and have included a photo of the side sticker(might help us both) as there seems to be much confusion on this matter. Please dont get me wrong im not trying to hijack ur thread. But i was browsing and i came across 3d game man in his video reviews(im not advertising for him) but he was runnin a venice oc @2.7 and 2 6800gt's plus 2 HDs and said it was soild. Arent the 6800gt's more power hungry than the newer GS's?
Hope this helps, Dublish. |

.. Unless you're willing to run your system at stock and possibly underclock id say no to that.. get a Fortron power supply.. it costs about the same and can supply alot more power
