[Robin88Hood]

Hello, I bought this PSU a few years ago for Intel Core 2 Duo and GF 250.
Now i change computer to:
Mobo:Asus 4 Maximus
Cpu: I7 2600K
Ram: 2x 8GB
Gpu: His Radeon 6970 ICEQ Turbo
1 ssd 3 Hdd

Is this PSU is still strong enough and stable for this computer?
Does anyone have a this PSU?

Hello Robin88Hood;

A few years ago is pretty vague. How old is the PSU?

You should be OK.
You'll be using the PSU's 2x 6pin PCI-e power connectors in the card designed for 1x 6pin connector and 1x 8pin connector but you should be OK doing that.

Thanks for reply.
My PSU is 4.5 years old. Too old.

4.5yrs is pushing it, I agree.

Antec HCG900W is a very good choice.
It got an excellent review over at JonnyGuru

If you want to spend a bit less the 750W model has enough power for a CFX setup with 2x HD 6970s and the rest of your system parts.
It has 4x 6+2pin PCI-e power connectors and a hefty 62Amps +12V power rating.
The HCG 900's +12V rating is 70Amps
