Will my PSU safely handle GTX 770 SLI?

mikeBEZZ · Aug 6, 2014

I've asked alot of people both my friends and forums and I've had mixed answers, my PSU: http://www.coolermaster.com/powersupply/gx-series/gx-750w/ is currently running:
Z87X-SLI Motherboard
Intel i5 4670k - stock speed, stock fan
8gb RAM
GTX 770

I want to know if it is safe to add another 770 or if I should get a new PSU?

I suggest getting a new PSU. Maybe get a good 850w so at least you have some extra headroom.

It's a 600W unit at most according to JonnyGuru, so I wouldn't recommend stressing it that much with 770 SLI. If you're set on 770 SLI, a new PSU is probably in order.

It should be ok as long as you arn't overclocking your CPU/GPUs... If you ever plan to OC'd id consider getting a higher quality 750w/850w PSU.

Get a better PSU, that one has its flaws. 850 watt XFX http://pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-power-supply-p1850snlb9
