    Well next gen GPU's are supposed to be mega power hungry. No harm in getting a beast now.

    Awesome spec.

    Completely agree, I bought my PSU with the idea of future proofing. I can run soo much with 620W and 750W takes this even further, don't forget aswell when you have Quad SLI the cards are drawing nearly 400-500W just on there own (or roundabouts that figure). I wouldn't get anything like quad-sli or crossfire but I will definitely consider SLI or Crossfire in future.

    changed 500watt psu and 7900gt to 7950gx2 (or whatever the hell it is) and the 750watt psu from scan bundle, changed Asus ASB-P5B to the gigabyte . Total extra cost, a little over £20 .
