750 psu for 670 sli.

Nope. A GTX 670 uses a max of 160 watts. That would be running something like Furmark. Normal gaming is unlikely to draw more than 150w.

Even Guru3d only recommends a 750w power supply for 670 Sli and they always recommend well over what you really need. You would really be OK with a quality 650w unit. But 750w to be safe with overclocking factored in and plenty of headroom...

Power supply link does not work.

Everything else looks good. Not sure why that 1 link does not work.

it should be enough, @ max load a 670 draws around 180-230W of power.

so in SLI that would be 360-460W.

id say yes, i dont think that rest of your pc draws more than 100-150w of power.

just to be safe i would recommend a +800w PSU, if you are overclocking

I think I made it work by changing the NCIX.com in the link to .ca. Is it a Corsair HX 750? If so it's an excellent unit. But they have the Corsair AX 750 for less money and it's a newer , better design. The AX 750 is made by Seasonic and based on the Seasonic X series and is one of the best units on the market. The HX is made by CWT. All in all Seasonic is the best manufacturer out there.

So less money, better unit.
