Well my Main Machine is running on a Seasonic 430 watt PSU without issue
and I have my X6 overclocked to 4 GHz and my GTX 460 running at 850 MHz
Folding@Home 24/7. My Kill A Watt shows that my box is pulling 280 watts
so does that put manufacturers marketing into perspective? Bigger is
better isn't always true.

Is 650w ever enough esp. with 2 cards? Not in my book, YMMV.

I've heard that retail availability is very soon. Expect $210 for the
CPU, $200 for a good mobo like the one reviewed by HardOCP (MSI), RAM
is cheap so you can pick up 8 gigs for a little over $100 (G Skill)
and a decent PSU (Seasonic or Corsair are best) will set you back
between $100-150. Should be fun..

I wonder what a i5-2500k will cost with 8 GB of DDR3 RAM? Just
looking for CPU, Mobo, RAM and maybe power supply....
Are real buyable parts to hit tomorrow?
