what i would like to know is if anyone know if the PSU INTER-TECH EPS-750w is enough for pulling gtx 275 SLI? information about the PSU can be found here:
http://www.fourcom.dk/product_card [...] r=EPS-750W i know its a danish website and sorry for that but the information should be in english
my other specs for my pc are as following:
INTEL i7 920 (SOCKET 1366) 4.8GT/sec
* GEFORCE GTX275, 896MB DDR3 GRAPHICCARD (x16 EXPRESS 2.0)
* GIGABYTE EX58-UD3R, (INTEL X58) (x16 EXPRESS 2.0)
***SUPPORTS BOTH SLI AND CROSSFIRE***
* 6GB DDR3 1333MHZ RAM *TRI-CHANNEL*, KINGSTON
* 24x SATA DVDBURNER +/- AND DVD-ROM
* 750W 17DB POWER SUPPLY
* 500GB WD HARDDISK, 7200RPM, 16MB CACHE
* 7.1 SURROUND SOUND CARD
* 2x IEEE 1394a FIREWIRE PORTS
* 10x USB 2.0 PORTS (2 AT FRONT, 8 AT BACK)
* GIGABIT NETWORKCARD(however its spelled) (1000Mbit)
* SUPPORTS RAID
* CASE APEVIA TELSTAR(BLACK)
if you need more information to help, just ask and ill see if i know it or can find out
The general rule of thumb is a high quality 500 to 550 watt power supply with sufficient current (amps) on the 12 volt rail(s) can easily power a system with any single video card made. A high quality 700 to 750 watt power supply with sufficient current (amps) on the 12 volt rail(s) can power a system with two video cards operating in dual mode. There are a few exceptions like the new ATI Radeon HD 5XXX series cards which use less power due to their energy efficiency.
so do you know if this INTER-TECH one is good quality? also lets say i had a Corsair 750w PSU instead, would this run it better than my current PSU and actually if mine can run it, is there any perfomance difference?
EDIT: btw with my current setup im trying to crysis maxed out and it can just barely do it, going SLI would make it a lot better right? ^^

The Corsair TX750 is definitely a superior PSU. PSU's don't have a direct impact on performance, usually. I'm not familiar with the Inter-Tech brand so I'm not sure of its quality though being an unknown brand and using passive instead of active PFC doesn't bode too well for it.
Going SLI will easily bring up your Crysis performance.
Power Factor Correction. It's an efficiency and power distribution feature.
Passive PFC uses filters to keep the signals clean but is subject to anomalies.
Active PFC uses an actual circuit to correctly draw the most efficient current and do other things.
of some reason i didnt receive an email for confirmation of account so its me, the on called anonymous ^^ :S
Anyway i have heard that i need something called a SLI bridge, what is that and could it already be implemented in the pc or something? ^^
Que ?
Antec Signature = Delta built
Antec Earthwatts = Delta built ( the oem change for the 380/430/500w (from Seasonic) hasn't caused any lack in quality , the 650 and 750 started off as Delta's )
HEC , FSP and CWT aren't even in the current lineup

Had a few problems with some recent Delta's. That's all.
