Im going to buy the AX750 because I like the whole full modular thing but I can go TX850 so I just wanted to know will the 750 be a good enough for my 2nd 660 and will it be fine for the future? And whats the diff between the same 750 in the TX and HX?

Btw can it run 2 770's easily??

Yes the AX750 is a good PSU to go for.

The best PSU manufacturers are

Corsair
Antec
XFX
Seasonic
Rosewill

These all supply good quality components in their units.

750 watts is fine for 2x GTX 780 in SLI , so dont worry much,..

AX are top of the Line , Platinum Rated , and have zero fan mode that stops the fan untill you consume more than 30% of PSU power ..

HX comes next , Gold Rated , Modular , their zero fan mode is after 20%

TX are the Bronze rated , the M only Modular

you can read more about them in the corsair site for more detail.

Go with the AX750 it's a perfect fit , you don't need 850w.

2 - 770's = 850w

Agree'd for two, 770's you'll want an 850watt.


Nope ,

GTX 770 TDP = 230 W

SLI = 460 W

are you telling me that the CPU + Mobo + HD and fans , etc needs 390 watts ?

CPU = 88 watt not overclocked , Mobo (chipset and ram and onboard chips) 100 watts , and extra 50 wats for fans and harddisks in case he uses FOUR , total is 700 watts ..
