Antec TruePower 750W

Will the Antec TruePower 750 be able to power 2 GTX570s in SLI? Or would I be safer going with 2 GTX560 TIs in SLI?
 
It think it would be close but OK. That unit is really a modified Seasonic M12D and that unit can take some punishment. I think you could probably pull closer to 900 Watts before things got hairy (I would NOT recommend that). Here is the Jonny Guru review the unit scores a 9!

So yeah - go for it as long as you don't have an aversion to running PSUs close to their rated power (and you don't go over the top on over-volted overclocking of the cards)
 
You'll be pulling a bit over 400W from 570 SLI at full load. Factor in maybe 150W for the rest of the components, probably closer to 200W if the CPU is stressed to max as well. So you've got about 600W absolute max power draw, usually less. That's not counting for DVD drives, usb devices etc... but they're marginal anyway.

It's a quality unit - I wouldn't worry, especially if it's still new.

Err... you do realize that 410 is the total system power and NOT just the cards, right?

No, it's not total system power consumption. Isn't that made quite clear in the Guru3D link I posted? The system total is 578W.
