Power Supply good or bad?

im running a 850W power supply with a AD x6 core, and 2x MSI 5830 twin frozers, 2 hard drives and 2 200mm fans, and 4 120mm fans, is this enough power? i notice in AMD overdrive my second card just stays at 300mhz and it should be at 800mhz

I hAd my sli gtx260s overclocked, q6600 overclocked in a antec 900 case.

My APC UPS reported 520W running everything 100% load.

The ati cards and x6 are less power hungery than my setup.... You'll max out bout 500W i bet.

What psu is it? A lesser quality won't put out 850, but more like 780-800W.

Youre all good.

While OCZ aren't my top ranked psu, its far from being crap.
