Dual GTX 680 for HX750?

[eletrickapple01]

Hey I recently bought a GTX 580 with a Corsair HX750 PSU. I am now interested in buying a Dual GTX 680. I was wondering if this Dual graphic card can be more than compatible for my PSU.

PS: Which GTX 680 version should i buy to give me maxed out graphics?

a 580 is still a beast a single 680 would only be about 35% better so are you sure you want that you can run two 680 on your psu no problem

Should I get a stronger wattage PSU?

no the 750w will be perfect, the one you have is a really high quality psu

No need to upgrade your PSU. 750 watts of Corsair wll get the job done.

2 680 should be fine on a high quality 750W Corsair, but you can get almost the same performance with less power consumption & $200 cheaper with 2 MSI N670 PE(GTX 670 factory overclocked).

here's what nVidia says:

http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-680/specifications

Maximum Graphics Card Power - 195 watts
Minimum System Power Requirement - 550 W

That's 745 watts total

here's what Guru3D says:

Here is Guru3D's power supply recommendation:

GeForce GTX 680 - On your average system the card requires you to have a 550 Watt power supply unit.
GeForce GTX 680 SLI - On your average system the cards require you to have a 750 Watt power supply unit as minimum.

If you are going to overclock the GPU or processor, then we do recommend you purchase something with some more stamina.

For dual 680's that power supply is perfect. No upgrade necessary. Your power supply is very high quality. As for the brand, I would personally go for an aftermarket cooler such as MSI's Twin Frozr or ASUS's DirectCU II.
