wait... SLI 760s + i7 with a 600W psu?

yeah... no... that's not enough.

i wouldn't be comfortable without at least 750W under the hood of that build.

Apparently the manufacturer has decided that 600watt is sufficient for the dual 760 cards although it is low compared to recommendations it is enough compared to all power benches I have seen. It should be fine with mild OC but not extreme.
Here measured total system power with dual 770 under 500watts gaming. http://www.anandtech.com/show/7492/the-geforce-gtx-780-ti-review/15

rolli59 :

depends on the 600W unit; a 600W seasonic built psu probably can handle it, most of those can handle 700W or so with ease... but i somehow doubt they have a quality psu in that build... i'm stunned they think that's sufficient.

See and whats confusing me is that its only 600w and in total i was told that they spent 1700 on it and i checked it was no bull i feel like i appreciate the computer but it was a terrible deal
