can it handle a 580?

[cbiltsouris]

hey guys im just wondering about somthing, im getting a gtx 580 for christmas but i dont no if my power supply can handle it. im planning to take one 460 hawk out and sell it and have the other for physx. but can the corsair 850ax handle those to cards? i intend to sli with another 580 later on. plus when do the non reference 580s come out?

that psu will handle a single 580 without a sweat, not sure about 2 of them in sli tho but i can see it being more than possible with a quality psu like that

theres a sale on now you can get a reference 480 for $399 sounds tempting

I would say yes , i have a Antec 850w with 1x GTX470 , 1x GTX460 and a GTX260(216) (will be replaced by another GTX470) a i7 860 overclocked to 4000Mhz 6gig ssd/hdd fans etc....

all running perfectly fine and the corsair is just as good , maybe even better who knows

i know this will be pushing but what about my 2 460 hawks and my 580(watercooled)
