I know that this PSU will power a 4830, hell, it'l power a 4870, but will it do 4830's in crossfire? I don't know the total power usage of 2 4830's so I wouldnt know.

I wouldn't trust a no-name power supply like an xClio with such an expensive system like that...
Get something like a Corsair, Seasonic, or Antec.
xclio is one of the psu's recommended here and I've got 2 of them as well. They are stable and quality psu's (says the man with a nspire)

The Xclio 460 is an Enhance unit. The Xclio that had been recommended in the past was from CWT (but not by me, anything with Fuhjyyu caps is flawed from the start). This particular one is based on the venerable ENP-5146G. I can't say for sure but it has ~32A combined on the 12V. The 4830 draws somewhere in the 80-90W range. With an OCed X3 I would say it was a little on the high side with the 4870, let alone two 4830s. It's a decent unit but I wouldn't do it.
Thanks guys.

I think I'm gonna give it a try, I've heard some pretty good things elsewhere too.

Also, it's only 45.99, not the end of the world if it ends up not being what I need.

thanks for the help.

My psu died a little while ago, It really couldn't handle the 4870. Then again, it was a logisys. If this handles the 4870 i will be happy. The dual 4830's would just be like, a bonus, lol.

Really?
I've never head of an xClio power supply recommended, ever..
News to me though, I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the heads up.

BTW: My NSpire has the same CWT internals as the Corsair 750TX, which is considered a good PSU
