PSU enough for GPU

[warlock111395]

I will be running 2 way SLI on EVGA Superclocked 560 Ti (fermi). Im wonder if the Antec Earth Watts Platinum EA-650W will be enough to run them both, its 80+ Platinum.

the psu only has 6 6+2 pins. a single 560ti requires 2 already.


edit: i think the highest card you can use that psu to crossfire without using molex to 6 pin would be the 7850, because of the fact that most models require only 1 6 pin.

So what is a good PSU that is 80+ that can support 2 560ti's, preferably under $130.

Get a PSU with 4 6-pin connectors.

They cost $20 more but it will work and work well.

Actually you dont need to buy a new psu if you have two empty molex. The card comes with molex to pcie power connectors

Thanks i think ill get the PC Power and Cooling Silencer Mk II 750W becuase its 80+ Silver. I need the lowest electric bill i can lol thats why i liked the platinum.

I just don't recommend the 2 molex adapters because you need to use two completely separate peripheral or molex lines and it makes for crappy cable management. Plus it isn't as good as two bonafide 75w 6pin connectors.

Another option...Gold and has all the cables you need: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151088
