Hey there,
I currently have a Corsair AX760i PSU with a i7-4770k @ 4.2GHz and one Gigabyte Windforce GTX 780 @ stock.
I might have the chance to get my hands on another GTX 780 but I was wondering if my PSU would be strong enough.
Judging by Corsair Link, my PSU deliver around 450W-470W when running Prime95 and Furmark at the same time.
As far as I know a GTX 780 draws around 250W-270W. So, I would be able to SLI two of them with my PSU, right?
I know there might not be much headroom for overclocking though.
Also, stupid question: Assuming my system would draw more power than my PSU can deliver, what would happen? I assume the system would just crash, right?
Worst case would be I kill the PSU?
