I'm planning to go with another GTX285 for SLi, but my power supply is a Corsair TX750, would it be enough? I would keep the same CPU, but I will change the Motherboard and the Memory (probably), but that's not my concern right now, all is already set for those other components, I'm really just wondering if I should perhaps go with a 1K Watt PSU? I've never tried SLi before and I don't know much about electricity, excuse my ignorance. I do know that there is a dedicated 12V rail with 60A on it, if that makes any sense.

Thanks.

You really should change your CPU too as well. Quads will really help with SLI.

I'm not sure why you need another gtx 285, but the PSU should handle that setup pretty well. I'd just make sure you have plenty of cooling for the setup and monitor your temperatures. May I ask why you need another gtx 285??
