Hello,


I would like to Crossfire with 2 hd7870. My question is:
Will I be able to Crossfire with my current set up if I buy a PCI-e molex adaptor? if so where could i find such connector/s? there was one in ebay but it has been removed =(

Here is my built:
Processor: I5 4670k
GPU: XFX hd 7870 Ghz edition
MOBO:Asrock Z87 Extreme4
PSU: Corsair Builder CX 600W 80Plus Bronze
Ram: Corsair XMS3 8gigs

If not what is a good reliable PSU I could buy taking into account a $50-$70 buget? I'm not OCign anything.
Any direction or advise would be greatly appriciated!

Kind regards
 
Solution
Yes. 80+ bronze is ok for it's price.
Best brands for PSU - seasonic, OCZ, Corsair...
Just look at the rating and warranty, it says almost everything

No you can't as far as i know. If 7870 needs 2 pci-e each then i'm sure.
Your PSU has 2 Pci-e, which is enough for single card.
Your PSU has 1 molex (atx) connector. To change it to 1 PCI-e you need 2 molex connected trought adaptor.

If you are looking for new just check that is crossfire ready, has 4 PCI-e connectors and at least 650 W.
