Pretty much looking for someone who like me has this PSU but wants to know if it can handle 2 5770s in CrossfireX or can handle a HD5870 in single slot as im looking to upgrade my GPU at thi moment but cant seem to find a 100% yes or no anywhere and im getting frustrated like theres no tomorrow lol.

Here is my setup i have:

This is the spec.
Antec Screwless Case
OCZ 500W- ModXStream Pro Power Supply
AMD Phenom ll X4 955 @3.2ghz
ASUS M4A79xTD EVO.
5 Gig DDR3 1066 Ram
1TB HDD
Gigabyte 5770 1gig DDR5 Gfx Card
Dvd Writer

My PSU is this one here..http://www.ocztechnology.com/products/power_management/ocz_500w_700w_modxstream_pro_power_supply

So a pretty much basic setup with only 1 dvd drive nd 1 hdd but i have fitted 3 120 m fans inside the Antec case also.

It sums it to just over 300 watts :)

And that's actually Extreme Outer Vision's calculator :p

So my current PSU should be good then??

And on the Antec test is my Mobo a regular do i select 100% top load for best results and what is Capacitor Aging and is my CPU a single Cpu??
