1080 Ti FTW3 SLI Wattage Req

[wrenaudrey]

Just curios...

I have a Corsair AX750, so 750W.
Would that be enough to SLI FTW3, no OC's on the cards?
How about a little OC on the cards?

My 4770K is OC'd though, 4.6GHz @ 1.18v.

PS. Not sure if this should be on GPU or PSU section of the forums hehe

I have owned this AX750 for quite some time.
Dont really want to be replacing it now.

Just wanted to make sure it will work and doesnt break or pop anything before I insert it for SLI really.

So do you think 750W will be okay for a while - play some games and stuff?

With everything at stock I reckon you will be hitting around 650w so you don't have a lot of headroom even without overclocking. It should be ok for gaming but don't go overclocking those cards. Like I said, if overclocking I would want a 850w+ psu. Please tell me you are gaming at 4k to need that much gpu power?

Nop! I own a PG279Q which is a 165Hz 1440p as you probably know. But I know my hardware and SLI FTW3 for that resolution or even 4k60hz is insane!
Dont worry though, I do know my hardware, im not that mental and most of all not that rich.

I have a friend who is going away for an amount of time and he has let me borrow his FTW3. So for science, WHY NOT!
