PSU for HD4870

dual 12v @ 18A per rail.. that looks like a good one, i personally like my rosewill psu a lot... but mines a 600W with dual 12v each running 22A, and im running a 7800gt which doesnt draw nearly as much power.

i'd say chances are it'll be just fine, but for sure you will NOT be able to run it in crossfire. it doesnt even have enough connectors for two of those cards.

with that card you'll need a good processor... a celeron would in fact bottleneck it really bad.

what type and what frequency? and how many cores? you might get a more balanced system buying an HD 4850 instead of a 4870, save $100 bucks and spend it on more processing power or something know what i mean.

Its going to have the E8400 Processor, and an equivilent Motherboard.

What exactly does crossfire mean...two videocards? (I'm obviously new to this)
If thats the case I really only plan on having the one HD4870
