No it is not a good power supply, for that amount of money you can generally do better. HardOCP for example gave it a failing grade.

The question really is that what are you looking to crossfire/SLI. Generally a good 850W PSU such as Corsair HX850. Can be used to SLI/Crossfire pretty much any single GPU card out there. Granted for the very high end slightly higher wattage might be in order but up to at least R9 280X and GTX770 it should be sufficient for regular gaming.

For 1000W+ Corsair HX1050 and Seasonic X Series 1050W would be my first go to's. While they cost around $200, they are still well worth the price. Coming with 7 year warranty and 80+ Gold rating.

I already have that in my system. It has lifetime warranty. I have no idea how power supply worked when I posted this, but jayZtwocents channel solved my problem. I was just curious that if this is a good power supply for gaming. And I believe this thing can hold 4 way Titan sli, right? So I think its really good.
Anyway, thnks for replying.

Depending on your CPU the 1050W is a stretch for 4 titans. Generally you need a good 1200W+ PSU to properly run 4 Titans and the OC'd CPU you need to feed them with stuff. They pull 250 or so watts each, and then the CPU and the rest of the system still needs between 100-300w depending on which cpu and how much overclocked and such. But it might work of course.
