Hey folks!
So i'm thinking of getting a second 770 from Asus in my rig. Now, i've already looked at another thread ( http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/answers/id-2091648/gtx-770-sli-power-supply-requirements.html ), but everyone gave different and contradicting answers.
I thought i'd ask in here to hear if anyone knows if i need to upgrade my PSU for a higher wattage one.
Right, so first off, rig;
GA-Z97X-SLI Mobo
Intel i5-4590, non-OC
Corsair H75
2-stick 16GB 1600 MHz Kingston RAM
Asus GTX 770 - it's not been OC'd further than Asus do with their stock cards
1x 1 TB Blue HDD
1x Intel 530-series 180GB SSD
1x Asus CD/DVD 24x Drive
2x F12 120mm Fans
3x Corsair 140L Fans
PSU: Corsair CX750
Some of that might be pretty unusable, but at least it's all in there.
Anyways, not overclocking my 770s. I read that it's good to have a bunch of headroom on your PSU for longevity and reliability - but in the earlier mentioned thread, it was disproven, somewhat.
I'd love to hear people's opinions!
Thanks~!
