Now in version 2.5, the latest eXtreme Power Supply Calculator update adds support for a bevy of new videocards, including the Nvidia GeForce GTX 580, AMD Radeon HD 6870, and HD 5850.
For you workstation gurus, the latest version now recognizes a whole bunch of professional videocards, including 20 new Nvidia Quadro cards and 19 new AMD FireGL, FirePro, and FireStream GPUs.
Other additions include an option for a mini-ITX motherboard and Intel Pentium D 935 and 945 Presler chips. The Lite version is free to use and lets you estimate what your system power requirements will look like, while the Pro version (prices range from $1.99/3 days to $9.99/lifetime) goes into a bit more detail with info on individual rails (+3.3V, +5V, and +12V), recommended UPS rating, and more.

Wow! That calculator says I need a 1300W P/S. Here are my specs...
Gigabyte X58A-UD3R rev2
i930 @ 3.3Ghz
HIS HD5850 1GB
3x7,200rpm HDD
2x10,000rpm HDD
no water cooling...just a heatsink/fan
5x80mm fans.
BTW I'm running a 750W Corsair P/S and it works great!

It's like looking at your gear if your running it all at 100% load which will never happen

It seems that since these changes happened, they also messed up the ability to verify for Crossfire and SLI configurations. No matter the video card selected (assuming an ATI card for CF and NV card for SLI), the site responds, "This brand cannot be used in SLI or Crossfire setup." Hope they fix it soon!
