SO My sons computer crapped out and i can use his (Evga GTX 760SC) but my PSU is only 550 watts (corsair TX550m).

I looked out how much my system will be using and i got 650 24 hours a day and 8 hours a day 544 watts.

Guru says they will only use 168 each.

My PSU has two PCIe connector ports and I can use Y connectors for the GPUs as they both have an 8 pin and 6 pin connector, i don't know why it needs another 6 pin connector?

So can i go SLI guys or should i wait till i buy my 850 watt SLI power supply (EVGA SuperNOVA 850 G2) which will be a bit of a wait...
