Well, it may help and it may not. I don't know if those few cards
would pull that much power. If I were you, I'd wait until I heard from
the other guys on this site. They're a mine of information and they
may have another (better) solution for your problem. They've seen it
all.

As far as my power supply setup goes, I got the LittlePower adaptor
from Reactive and pulled an ATX supply out of an old PC. Quick, cheap
and painless. I went external, but Reactive has a source for a small
supply that fits inside the case.
