OK, so my computer will be:

i5-2500k
Fractal Design Full Tower with 3 included fans
Gigabyte Z68X-UD3H-B3 Motherboard
8 Gigs of Kingston DDR3 RAM
120 Gig SSD OCX Agility probably...

I will be using my existing GTX260 for the meantime. I plan on upgrading to a 560ti or higher later.

What kind of power supply do you guys envision me needing to use this setup?

With the 260?

With the 560ti?

With a dual card setup since my MoBo will support that?

OCing? What will this require?

Thanks in advance and down with SOPA and PIPA!

Both cards use about the same amount of power. You probably need somewhere around 450-550W of quality power for such a rig with one GPU. That will be plenty even with overclocking.
