How big of a power supply do I need for Dual Graphic Cards? 8600GTS?

I have a GeForce 8600GTS 512MB 128-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 with a 600W Power Supply.

I'm planning on buying another GeForce 8600GTS 512MB 128-big GDDR3 PCI Express x16 do I have to buy another Power Supply?

600Watt is more than enough, you're fine. I wouldn't try the 375Watt like the above person said though, 375 is most certainly not enough for both and all the other components.

I think so, since the single 8600GTS seems to need a 375W power supply...

600 should be sufficient, but 750 would be what I would use
