So I currently have a EVGA GTX 760 2GB that I bought a long time ago and I have been thinking about getting a MSI GeForce 780GTX TF 3GB so I could get a SLI and better FPS while playing games.
So my queastion is if 700W is enough to get a SLI with these two cards.

More about : gtx 760 780 sli 700w

A GeForce GTX 760 GPU must be paired with another GeForce GTX 760 GPU (graphics card manufacturer can be different) with the same frame buffer size.

Dunno the rules of SLI but I think the 780 would be limited to the 760s specs, so your better off getting another 760.

The recommended wattage for two 760s is 700W, two 780s is 850W.
It would probably run but you'd be asking too much of your PSU if you start gaming with them :(

As calvin stated, you cannot sli a 780 and 760. The are 2 completely different graphics processing units.

I guess I will get that 780 and try to sell the 760 on Ebay or something.
Thank you for answering Calvin

You could use the second card to process physX if you're into any games that use it.
