hi all! i was wondering a couple of things, can i crossfire one amd radeon 7870 with a 7850!? also i wonder wether a 675w psu is enough for that? thanks for your time!

For your first question the answer is yes. The psu would have to be a quality one. I recommend one of at least 700w but i am the type that likes to have headroom and may not ever use it.

I think that particular PSU is certified to do SLI but just because it is not certified to do Crossfire does not mean that it cant. =D
