Corsair Hx520 enough? I want it to still be enough in 2 years and with an AMD/Intel Quad core running at 75-90% load at times.

I might get a 6850 or 6870 myself using a HX520 and I generally never go above about 40% of psu max on my current machine, doubtful this will get me over 50% of max, I think that says it all.

At gaming load, my 5850 gets my HX520 to like 40% at most. 6xxx is even more efficient so there's no way.
