Hi guys,
I have my brothers 5850 here that I would like to throw into my system and crossfire it, problem is I am pretty sure my Hiper 530M won't handle them both.
It has 18A and 17A on the 12v so will probably blow if I used that.
Can I hook up another power supply outside the case to power the second 5850, it will only be for 20 minutes for a test to see if crossfire is worth it for BF3. If it is I will buy a 750w PSU today from Overclockers.
Thanks,

That is a link to my current psu's spec
