This will work fine for just 2 9800GTX's

But it only has 4 6-pin PCI-E connectors, so get this if you are planning on upgrading to 3.

Edit: And with that second one you could run up to 3x GTX280 SLI, or 2x GTX295 SLI... so the second will power anything on the market right now.

I have an e8400 overclocked system with 2 dvd drives and 2 HDD's with 2 9800GTX's that are overclocked as well and have an ABS Tagan BZ 800 PSU and have no problems. I would just browse thru newegg and find some you like, and check the reviews to see if someone has a similar setup. Thats what I did.

just make sure it has 4 6-pin connectors, or some combination of 6+2 pin's.. like 2 6 pins and 2 6+2 pins...
