Hi everyone.
I recently decided to build a system using following parts:
AMD FX X8 8350 BOX
ASROCK 970 EXTREME4
3x PCI-E XFX AMD RADEON HD 7870 Black Edition 1050M
8 GB, CORSAIR Vengeance RAM
2x 5200rpm HDDs
1x generic SSD (not sure which one yet)
So I found a powers supply that I thought would fit my needs: CORSAIR CX 750W 80 PLUS Bronze
When I went to the first wattage calculator (the Asus one) it gave me a value of 1200 Watts. That seems far too much so I tried this wattage calculator that I've used in the past http://www.extreme.outervision.com/PSUEngine
It gave me a value of 589 Watts.
Do you this the Corsair power supply that I mentioned would be able to handle this system with 3 GPUs?
Best regards,
Kraghot
