Need advise on a new psu !!

RobCherry · May 18, 2014

Hi guys, looking to make my build into a sli configuration and not sure what size psu to go for.
my current build is

amd fx8150 8-core
16gb patriot viper
gtx 760 dcuii
1tb western digital hd
corsair cx600m

i was looking to upgrade to either the 750watt or 800watt corsair psu's. also do you guys think making my system into a sli would give me alot better graphics or do you think it would be best to just upgrade the one graphics card. cheers

750W is plenty good for two GTX 760, or pretty much most SLI configs.
Main thing is to get a 5 year warranty. So yeah, a couple of the Corsair units are pretty good. Don't settle for a 3 year warranty though.

I think 2 GTX 760 would be pretty awesome, it depends on the game but I'd be pretty happy with that.

ok thanks for the reply. The main games im playing at the moment are battlefield 4 and borderlands 2.
my current build plays borderlands on all the highest settings at 1920 x 1080 and runs approx 75-80fps sometimes gains around 100fps.
battlefield 4 however runs around 55-65fps but on the occasion drops to around 40/45fps when playing on some of the more intensive maps. This is also on all the highest settings.
Is it worth a second gtx760 or maybe buying a new graphics card as id like to be able to achieve a higher more constant fps, especially in battlefield 4.
thanks
