Hi guys my specs are maximus iii gene, i5 750, 6gb corsair ddr3, 250gb hd and only one gtx 560 ti pny oc1. I haven't purchased the psu yet and I'm not sure about the amount of power my build will need I'm told 700w would be fine however if i decide to install an additional gpu will that still be enough and would it be worth spending the extra £20 to get the gold cert rather than bronze? Many Thanks

700W will be enough for 2 x gtx560Ti's Its up to you whether you get bronze, silver, gold or platinum. Just get a good quality power supply eg Seasonic 620, 650 or 750

Thanks i7baby also in your personal opinion would you get a second gpu installed into this system because I've been told that the current gpu will not be sufficient for games like gtav, civ5, borderlands, which I'm intending to play and apparently the same goes for the cpu???

I would not waste money on cards that are over 3 years old! I would highly recommend you wait for the GTX970 and GTX980 cards to be released within the month. The release of these new cards will drive down the prices on all current-gen 700 series cards. A single GTX770 is much more powerful than both GTX 560Ti cards in SLI and will use less power and be more stable since you would be running a single card vs. SLI.

I went down that track - one gtx560, then 2, then sold them to get a gtx670, now I've got two. I stick with what my TX750 Corsair will handle.
