Only in 3DMark Vantage will you see a increase ,even with Tri SLI you only get around 20 to 30% increase .I went to three GTX 470's and it is not that much of a increase in my games ,but I knew that before I got it .You all ready have a dream machine except you don't have a 30" monitor so you can play at 2560x1600.

Adding a fourth card from Gigabyte will work fine with the 3 Zotac.

A 400 Watt with 36+ Amps total,would power a single 480GTX card.
Problem is that you would be hard pressed to find a 400 watt with 6pin and 8pin,but you could use 2x6pin for 8pin and two molex connections to 6pin to supply enough power the card.

Now if your adding a fourth card and have some extra cash and want a good benchmarking computer.

Buy all the water cooling gear.
Buy/make water-chiller for sub ambient/sub zero temptures and some kneaded art eraser or some other forum for insulating board,card,cpu,memory for 24/7 use.
