both will have the same requirements.

all 3 systems are setup to accommodate one more gpu and still have head room.

1. Dst4me loves the HAF case cause it got pretty good cooling but im with u i sorta like the FT02 better than haf, its your choice some say HAF got better cooling others say the FT02(assassin)
2. he gave u the 1250W psu because you will need the power if you choose to upgrade to duel gpu's
3.the memory fankit helps cool ur ram and is pretty cheap so u should get it
4.gtx 480 already runs very hot and OCing it only makes it hotter. OCing the 480 also only adds a few fps which wont be noticable for your human eyes so its pointless

i got all these from reading forum so yea not my own experience

Will i be able to run dual SLI with no problem with just the 1,000w? its just when i get into triple SLI i need the extra 250w?

for dual sli with 480, you gonna want the 1250w psu, a 1200w will do also, but here you want either the corsair or enermax psu.
