Will the TPQ-850 give me enough power for dual 4870s, a q6600, 4 hard drives, plus peripherals? I don't really know what to look for in a PSU except wattage. This guy is modular (I like modular... excess cables FTL) and is on sale, but I've heard that multiple 12V rails at low ampage is a bad thing and this one has 4 at 18A apiece.

it will be more than fine. in this test, they used a QX9650. only hit 520 watts used on full load.

It should prove more than enough to power two 4870s.
