OK will this PSU be good enough. Antec TruePower 2.0 550W( comes with Antec Titan550)

2x Opteron 275 (2.2Ghz 1MB x2)
1x Tyan K8WE
2x Thermalright XP-90
4x Antec 75002 92mm Fan (2 for XP-90, 2 for Case)
4x Corsair 1GB PC3200 ECC/REG
2x Western Digital 120GB IDE
1x Quadro FX3400 PCI-E 16x
1x NEC 16x DVD-RW
1x NEC Floopy
1x Antec Titan550

Other than a very expensive computer, do you think 550W is enough? personly i think 450-500Watt is enough comparing other configs i've done but not to sure about these Dual Cores.

Thanks in Advance

getting to the bottom line now LORD?
I've enjoyed your posts
me thinks that is not enough case cooling
2 x 120 or 4 x 80-90 minimum
xp 90 al or C?
and try and put a divider in so heat from one cpu will not get to the inlet of the other
does the motherboard requie ECS or other special connectors? and if so does the ps have them?
ditto with the video card
ide drives in raid? you already must own these drives- right
cuz the new seek optimized SATA drives work real good
you have a good ups - right- with power conditioning
were in an AC space- right? good HVAC
I think you are ok on the WATTS were not ocing here are we?
If this is a mission critical computer PC Power and Cooling but the antec is very good

well I got curious and looked up your case
It has a 120 mm fan in the back so with the two 92's in front you're good to go
keep the hard drives seperated in the case
I forget the other thread
do your applications really benefit from the 275s or would lower powered dual cores work?
looks good
