2 780 Ti's with 1000 watt Rosewill 80+ bronze PSU

Theironman117 · Dec 15, 2014

Hey all, just wondering if it would be safe to run dual 780ti graphics cards on a Rosewill 80+ bronze certified 1000 watt psu. It has 4 +12 volt rails two of which have 30 amps and the other two have only 20 amps. Setup is as follows:
Intel i7 4770k 3.5Ghz CPU
Corsair H60 water cooler CPU
Corsair Vengeance 24GB RAM
Samsung 512GB SSD
Samsung 128GB SSD
WD 1TB HDD (2)
MSI Geforce GTX 780 Ti (1 wanting 2)
Asus blu Ray drive
LG dvd/cd combo drive
Sound Blaster Z sound card by Creative
TP link wireless card
4 case fans (2, 120mm 2, 80mm)
MSI Z97 Gaming 7 Motherboard

Is it ok to run two of these 780tis on this PSU?

You need 950+W from a good quality PSU - per tiers 1, 2a or 2b of http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-1804779/power-supply-unit-tier-list.html

eg Rosewill - Capstone series, Lightning series, Tachyon or Fortress Series

Could I run them though safely?

I've been doing a lot of research and it seems like some people have been able to run 2 of them with an 850 watt bronze certified psu with ease

if it was me, i would not worry much, but that is just me

I know it's bronze certified which is the worst and it is sli certified so I'm assuming it can handle it. I am only using about 690 watts thus far from benchmarking and testing and I'm afraid I'm going to push it to its max with this.

You haven't said whats series PSU you have. Just Rosewill.

If I invested in 2 x gtx780Ti's I'd want to make sure I had a good power supply for them.

That 1

For some reason, link doesn't work. What series?

Theironman117 · Dec 15, 2014

RBR1000-M model number Rosewill 80 plus bronze certified Modular design

Theironman117 · Dec 15, 2014

It says efficiency is >82% up to 87% so it would basically do 820-870 watts effectively?

i7Baby · Dec 15, 2014

Its not one of the good ones and its only 900W - http://www.rosewill.com/products/1370/productDetail.htm

Theironman117 · Dec 15, 2014

Still, though, would it be able to run it? I have done a lot of research all over here and some people seem to have been able to run two 780 Ti's with 850watt bronze certified psus.

If it helps, I have the rig hooked up to my 42" sharp LED 1080p TV. I don't think I'd be pushing these to max anyways I'm eventually going to upgrade to a 4k UHD TV and I wanted to be able to max out graphics with two of them. I looked up specs on the 780 ti and it needs 42 amps on the 12 volt rail at max settings. If in reality, it would probably only do about 35-38 and I'm assuming I wouldn't be pushing them to max until I upgrade to a 4k UHD tv.

I'm not recommending you use it. You can if you want. It's your PC.

Theironman117 · Dec 15, 2014

Just wondering if I'd be able to run them semi safely without worrying too to much. I don't care if it's not one of the "good" psus all I'm asking is if it would be fine to run dual 780 Ti's.

Theironman117 · Dec 15, 2014

ok thank you that's all I was asking. I think I'm gonna be ok but I might invest in the future for something better.
