Do you think the 850 watts is enough for the graphics cards and do you think i should do something other than crossfire 290s?
Edit: 850 watts

Yep! The PCpartpicker estimates are pretty accurate. 850W is more than enough and good for future expansion. I'm more for Corsair PSU's tho, check the AX860i.
