get a 4870. Crysis, STALKER already kills any card short of a good SLI/XF. i am sure alan wake would do the same. infact farcry 2 is also a *good* candidate.
u dont want to buy a card and 5 months off think about what u did. infact if u could get ur hands on a 1 gig variant, do that.
get a corsair hx or tx series psu.
both are CF and SLI ready (620HX, 750TX).
u can pull of a CF and SLI with a 520 watts, but thats cutting it a little too close for my liking.

a 4870 CF rig at load pulls 444 watts (entire system)

again i write this again and again, it isnt the total wattage that is important. it is where they are coming from that is the key. u need em off the +12V rail
