  1. Supposed to be able to run 2 4850s in Crossfire with a 550watt PSU. Thats taking the whole system into consideration, not just the cards. I run a rig with 3 hard drives, TV Tuner,sound card,  floppy, 2 rom drives and a ton of LED fans, tubes and 2 4870s in CF with a PC Power and Cooling Turbo Power 860 watt PSU. Heres a list of ATI certified PSUs for running ATI cards in Crossfire:
