I have a question about power requirements?

PCGAMER1234 · Jan 3, 2015

Ok So here is my situation i am upgrading to a 8320 and a new Gigabyte motherboard and my brother is also upgrading his pc and he is giving me his old 6870(I have the same exact 6870) So i am going to Crossfire them and i have a CX600w And it only has 2 6+2 pins would it be safe for me to run crossfire with 2nd GPU using Molex to 6 pin? until i upgrade to a CXM750.Probably would be running like that for about 2 months..Or is that not going to work at all?

It says i would use 596w @100 load..According to this i would be fine? But it would probably be good to get a bigger PSU for headroom tho

Yes. It's always better to have more power than you need and not have to use it than to need it and not have it. Just buy a high quality unity and call it good.
