Getting a SINGLE rail PSU is the way to go, at least for me!
Your power supply will work if you don't put too much in the computer or the single rail can be overloaded and you can get crashes especially when overclocking everything. recommended sli boards have more than one rail. If the cards have their own supply rail nothing else will interfere with them.
It also states that the cards should be on their own rail. Not shared.
The amps rating is as important as the Watts.
