I'm concerned about the description of the card I just purchased
[strike]WindForce 2x with Blade fan design
Support up to 8K Display @60Hz[/strike]
Build with 4+1 power phases
[strike]Boost: 1797MHz/ base: 1582MHz in OC mode
Boost: 1771MHz/ base: 1556MHz in gaming[/strike]
Upgrading from 7870-Tahiti Le 2GB to Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1060 Windforce OC 6GB and I just noticed on the page it says "Build with 4+1 Power Phases" and my motherboard Gigabyte Ga 990fxa ud3 has a power phase of 8+2... or maybe it supports up to 8+2? Hah.
Should I be concerned? will my GPU be compatible with my components in question. Should I cancel my order immediately for a different card? or will everything be fine and I have nothing to worry about here.
Edit: Power Phases confuse me somewhat.
PSU: XFX ATX12V/EPS12V 550W (if that matters)
