you dont need a new psu, that hiper 525 psu is more than enough ..nvidia recommends at least a 400w psu ..even if you're getting 2 8800 gts that psu should be able to do the job

I have a 550, and am going to continue to use it when I get my quad core...

Depending on how many amps are on the 12v+ rail you may not need a new PSU. But I would get a better one if you plan on going with 2 video cards.

That zalmans PSU is a good one. List of powerful + high efficient PSUs <$150 USD.

there's 37a on the 12v rail, it should be fine

Stern, those Hiper PSUs have gained a reputation of being very unreliable. Countless people on the Overclockers.co.uk forums have complained that the notorious PSUs have blown on them, they arent particularly expensive or of high quality.
Also, OcUK reccommends a bare minimum of 500W to run the cards, a 600W is reccommended.

well then ...throw it out immediately /me hands elrasho 2 crisp $100 bills


...wait a minute ..

Mainly becasue its from a retailer I trust and its thte same make as my case which has given me no probs at all

well once your computer is put together there should be a reason why your case would give you trouble ...besides the occasional freak incidents when structure integrity gives way and your tower comes down like the WTC you should have nothing to worry about :E
