Here's a link to the nVidia site for the Certified SLI-Ready Power Supplies.

I would say 850w or above if you want to run 470s in SLI, Corsair AX1200 would be a good choice or maybe a 1000w NZXT Hale90. Corsair HX850 or AX850 or the equivalent Seasonics or NZXTs should also work, but I would recommend having a little buffer.

I run my 470's and overclocked i7 with a Corsair TX850. You'd be perfectly fine with a TX, HX, or AX850 from Corsair.

Find a quality power supply that stands up to its specs when reviewed. Consider what else you're connecting to the PSU (number of harddrives, etc.). I've been running an amd 965 and a pair of 6870s on a 625 watt psu (that's supposedly a good one according to reviews) and a ~650 watt no-name UPS, for months now.

Depends on your budget, if money isn’t a problem the ax850 is more than enough for your needs.

+1 for the AX850 - fully modular - lovely & quiet....

The Seasonic X850 Gold Plus is an identical power supply, so choose between that or the AX850 depending on the price
