    I don't know that much about Enermax, I tend to stick with the big name brands, Corsair, or PC Power & Cooling, There product may or may not be any better, but there reputation, customer service and warranty usually is. Can not tell you first hand that the Corsair service is better because I've never had an issue, ( with a corsair PSU  )and have therefore never had to use it, but have seen posts from others, and they have seemed satisfied. I have even seen Corsair_Mike come on the forms to help others, with both power and memory, and that impressed me. He did show up when the Dom GT issue was going on, I've never seen an enermax rep , or any other PSU manufacturer rep hunt you down to help you fix a issue. Normally it's you hunting them, to beg for help.

    At full load that rig could pull a lot of power. 300 W 5970 + 200 W 5870 + 180 W 260 + 150 W for the i7 = 830 W. You might get by with 1000 but that would be pushing your luck. I suggest getting a 1200 or higher for all those cards. It's better to have too much power than not enough.

    I've heard mostly good things about Enermax. I had a 500 W Liberty a few years ago and it ran flawlessly. There was a recent issue with compatibility with the Classified motherboard. As far as I know that problem has been fixed with a new PSU revision.
    This one is a little pricey but should provide enough juice.

    im currently running the same enermax psu, which is every bit as good as any other top notch psu, it will power the combo that you mentioned with ease.

    NEW MADNESS IN THE WORKS......STAY TUNED!!
