good article.  I've an older 550W PSU that I'm hoping to use for new build.  If I want to go SLi, I'm not sure it'll be upto scratch, should be fine with one GPU though.

As long as it's a good quality PSU that can hold constant 12V and 5V rails, then it should be fine for all but the most hardcore rigs.
