My system specs below, but im getting a 8800gt in a few days. Will a 500 w Enermax Liberty PSU be good enough for a stable system? i have seen people on forums running nearly the same rig as mine with a 450 w psu, but need your expert opinions! Thanks

    Please list the amperage on your 12v rails.

    Yeah, it should do alright. But I always try to have 200W more than my peak requirement so I can slap in some more gear if I feel like it and that's why I got the Thermaltake Toughpower 700W. 4 12V's at 18A a pop.
