muhtasim_zarif · Sep 25, 2014

Hi, I'm am running quite an old rig. I do not need an update except GPU. My specs:
Intel core i7 920
ASUS P6T MB
Corsair H80i cooler
8TB of HDD (4 Seperate ones)
16 GB of RAM
Thermaltake 750 watt Bronze (TR2 RX)

Currently i have decided to upgrade my GPU to GTX970. I wish to sli in future.
Will 2 970 suit in my system with the given psu model?
Thanks.

750 watts is more than enough for two 980s..... just not that 750 model watter. This one is $50 and gets a 9.5 build quality rating from jonnyguru.

Most people wouldn't even run a TR2 supply in their setup , they are very poor.

You need a better quality supply to run 2 - 970's.

Tier 5 - Other than the units listed above for any of these brands, NOT RECOMMENDED. Replace ASAP if you have one.

No, It won't.

If it was a high quality 750w it would be fine but , your is lacking in quality.
