Try to get one with at least 38A total for the 12V1 + 12V2 combined, or 36A on the 12V.

Hipper Type R is a nice PSU, modular with nice sleeving, quiet, and a few people here have it. (I think Enterprise has it, ask him about it )

If you're looking to run 2 cards in SLI/X-fire, you should look for a PSU w/ as high an amparage on the 12 V rail (atleast 40A).

That is the "rated" amps too, it will do more under load. PC P&C is amazing. It is a really quiet PSU as well, it isn't called the Silencer for nothing!

If you don't have $200 then the OCZ GameXStream 700W would work well for anything you wanted to do. I just don't like it as much since it has split rails where as the PC P&C has one rail.
