Hi everyone and I am just wondering is my 750 w power supply good enough for a second 7970. I am planning to add another 7970 to my build to make it dual crossfire but I don't know if my power supply can handle it.

System Specs:
AMD FX-8350
XFX Radeon HD 7970 3 GB GDDR5
8 GB of DDR3 Memory (1600 MHz) 8x1
Thermaltake 750 w power supply

Here is the link to the PSU: http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item...

Thanks

Sadly for a second 7970 you should have over 850 Watts. To run a second 7970 I suggest you get something like this:

It has enough power to run your system and it's modular, plus it's made by Corsair and they make very good PSU's
