Once you've installed it all and hopefully booted to windows, run MSI Kombustor and Prime 95 all at the same time. If you don't BSOD or the computer doesn't shut off or hang, you're fine.
I assume you're familiar with Prime 95 since you have a moderate overclock anyway.
Known as 'Sharzam' in 98.5% of games

Well according to bit-tech.net
The two GPUs will use 512 watts at load (256wattx2), the i5-2500k clocked at just 3.3Ghz at load uses 148watts.
So that is 660watts without HDDs or anything else (unless I'm reading things wrong). An extra 700Mhz overclock on each core will also use more power.
It is a 700watt supply. 700 -660 = 40watts.
Is bit-tech's info wrong? or does it really have 150watts headroom like you claim?
