Yes it is, if you zoom in it says right on the board that it's good for SLI and crossfire.

Yes, it works for SLI but good is subject to interpretation ..... it's good if it meets ya needs and those weren't stated .... SLI for how many cards ? at what bandwidth ? How much space for cooling makes ya feel comfy ?


It can do 2 cards at x8 x8 and gives 2 lots between the two cards.

If ya want more space for cooling (3 slots between cards) and / or x16 x16 bandwidth w/ 2 cards or quad SLI (x8 x8 x8 x8), look for something like the Asus Z87 WS

Which Corsair?

If HX or AX, or possibly TX then that's fine.

If CX, GS or (god forbid) VS, then you're better off with an XFX.

I'd go with XFX anyway tbh.

It isn't just the wattage that you need to take into account - you need to also ensure that the rails are powerful enough.

And ATX isn't the series of the PSU - it's the size.

Which Corsair were you looking at, more specifically? Can you provide a link to a webpage?

I'd go for a Corsair TX 750 if possible, or an XFX 750W.

The CX 750 only has 2 PCIe connectors, but you'll need 4 for 2 GTX 670s in SLI.

The CX is the lower-end of Corsair's PSU range as well. They're good, but by no means great.

That PSU would be perfect, sir.
