ok title isnt the greatest however its something that im worried about.
so my current rig is:-
CPU:- Intel core i7 4790k @ 4.4Ghz (OC'd just from multiplier)
CPU cooler:- NZXT kraken X31
RAM:- 32GB (4x8GB) G.skill ARES 1600Mhz (using XMP profile)
Motherboard:- Gigabyte Z97X-SOC
GPU:- Gainward (custom PCB) Geforce GTX 970 (core clocked @ 1502Mhz, memory clock @ stock) 4GB GDDR5
storage: 2x 500GB Samsung 850 EVO 2x samsung 250GB 840 EVO 1x 500GB seagate 7200RPM HDD, 1x idrive2 duo 1.2TB PCI-E SSD
cooling:- 3x 200mm NZXT FS200LED 4x 120mm NZXT FN120 1x 140mm bitfenix spectre LED
PSU: Corsair AX860i 80+ platinum
CASE: NZXT Phantom (Original large tower)
im currently using about 550w at most when gaming scenario's probl;y not even that much
So thats my current setup, has plenty of power to spare right now HOWEVER im looking at buying 2 GTX 980 Ti's
1 of 3 designs
Gigabyte G1 edition
Inno3D ichill herculez x3
Zotac AMP edition
Or possibly 2x AMD next "fiji XT/fury" whatever it wants to be called GPU featuring HBM. possibly the sapphire Tri-X edition as u know sapphire love making that version of every AMD card.
assuming the power needed to each card is the same as the GTX 980 Ti which the AMD card will most likely be less or the same due to the 20% less power needed for the HBM compared to GDDR5.
do you think my AX860i can handle 2 of either of these cards?
