I have a EVGA G2 750w PSU in my current personal rig, and I plan to upgrade to SLI GTX 1080s when they become readily available. I currently run an i7 6700k OC'd to 4.7GHz.
I had previously run SLI 980tis with an 850w PSU in a client build with an OC'd CPU, and that was more than enough juice to keep it going.
Given that 980tis draw about 50w more than an aftermarket 1080, would I be correct in saying that I would be able to run SLI 1080s with the G2 750w, considering it can typically run up to a steady 750-800w without a problem? Or is there something i'm missing?
I would be happy to run both at stock speeds (MSI Gaming X planned) if need be given the performance by GPU Boost 3.0, but I would like to overclock a little given that temps allow it.
Could there be additional power draw with a HB SLI bridge? (Stupid question, but just wondering!)
Thanks!
