I think you might have issues. Look here.

It shows that an idle GTX 260 216core runs around 158W and under full load it can draw 262W. If you have two of these running it's going to take around 300W at idle and if both cards are under full load, then you're pushing the 500W range. I'm not sure your PSU will be able to handle two of these in SLI while running everything else.

Just my thoughts....take them as you want

it should be good i think but u should atleast get a corsair 750 if u have yet to buy a psu then get this otherwise just use 1 gtx 260 for nowparaskhos_basic

As long as it has 4x PCI-E power connectors and you don't have to mess around with those molex-to-pci-e converters then you'll be fine. The Thermaltake Toughpower series are decent PSU's and will deliver pretty much they're rated power, no problems.
