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

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.
