Well I'm very confident of it, I've run MY rig off that TR2 unit.

I'm running three hard-drives, a 4850, two optical drives, two PCI cards and alot of fans.

The Thermaltake TR2 430 is not something you should buy. For one, it is actually only a 350W PSU and two it has a pathetic 18A on the 12V rail. That is completely unacceptable for a modern system with anything more than integrated graphics or a very low end dedicated gpu. Here's a review: http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/332.
