Will my PSU be enough for my GTX 780 SLI?

emperormalt · Sep 19, 2014

I have been searching on different forums and seen people are both recommending and not recommending a 750w PSU for a gtx 780 SLI.
I have a Corsair PowerSupply CX 750M 750W and i have plans to make a bridge on my ASUS GeForce GTX 780 3GB DirectCU II OC and i'm going to buy another such card.
Will my PSU be enough?

More necessary specs:
PSU: Corsair PowerSupply CX 750M 750W
Motherboard: ASUS Z87-A - ATX / Z87
CPU: Intel Core i7-4770K - 8 trådar / 3,5GHz (3,9GHz Turbo) / 8MB / Socket 1150 (84w)
Graphic card: ASUS GeForce GTX 780 3GB DirectCU II OC (GTX780-DC2OC-3GD5)

Noooo...Not With the Corsair CX. They aren't good for SLI,Crossfire's. Whats your budget for PSU?

2x gtx 780 ti should not consume more than 550 watt plus your processor and other parts 200 watt max so it would be a very tight fit and i will not recommend a setup like that and not at all with a cx PSU from corsair so atleast get a 850 watt of PSU from seasonic, xfx, evga g2/b2 ,corsair hx/ax/tx etc.

I have a budget so getting a new PSU is no concern.

You can go for what Blackbird suggested otherwise these if you don't wanna spend that much--> http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-power-supply-120g21000xr
Or get this one it is the same price as the EVGA Supernova 1000 Platinum. But this one has abit more efficiency--> Antec High Current Pro Platinum 1000W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully-Modular

I'll get the EVGA SuperNOVA G2 1000W. That should give me enough juice. Thanks for the advice dude.
