Hey guys,
I want to buy a SLI System with 2 7800GTX GeForces. But they need an own PCI Express Slot or Cable from the PSU.

All PSUs I've seen so far had only 1 PCI Express Cable, but how can I run then with 2 Cards?

Sorry for my bad English!

Get the PC Power & Cooling Turbo-Cool 510 SLI (http://www.pcpowercooling.com/products/viewproduct.php?show=T51SLI). It's the best on the market, and has 2x"PCI Express Cables". Enjoy your beast! ;)

If you can afford it definately go with PCP&C. However if you cant Enermax & Antec both offer good solutions that will power SLI just fine.

It would help if y6ou gave us a budget, but all the PSU's in the link Dave gave you are really good. Just pick according to taste and price.

If he is buying dual 7800GTX you should be able to define as you wish. Its just plain stupid to pay what $1000+ on graphics and not spend $100 on the power for them

I'm in the same boat as you are and will be going with the PC Power and Cooling 850 SSI.

I want to rule out any chance of a power related issue....:)

Wow you have an Enermax 660w and yet you're still upgrading.

Not so strange with a whopping 8 drives

Yeah, but i'd say the Enermax is still plenty as the rest isn't anything overwhelming.
