i recently purchased a Radeon 7950 for 259$ on black friday, and Due to some shipping and payment mishaps (long story), i ended with TWO of them. They sent me two, and i double and triple checked but they only charged me for one. So now i have two of these which i got for only 259.00$: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150671
So i thought i might try setting them up in crossfire, but ive never done it before and im trying to figure out if its worth it for me. The most resource heavy games i will be playing are skyrim, fallout 3 and new vegas, and saints row 4. (and fallout 4 if its ever announced). here is my build that i currently have.

my question is, is it worth upgrading my power supply to take advantage of this free crossfire? Will i even notice a difference or will i just end up adding extra heat to my case (storm enforcer with added top fan)
if i do decide to upgrade how many watts will i need? With that setup will i be able to absolutely max those games?
thanks for any advice.
