Crossfire and PSU

[~Divine~Wind~]

Seems I may have forgot to check something

Just took delivery of 2 MSi 6950 TFIII PE's

PSU is a BeQuiet Dark Power Pro 650W.

Rest of PC:

e8400 (small OC but stock volts)
8Gb DDR2
2 Sammy F1 320GB HDDs (Raid0)
Handfull of USB devices and a single optical.

More juice needed ya think?

Can't find my manual anyone got a PDF (and yeah Im also searching for one )

Based on this 650W (624W on the 12V rail) is enough.

I wouldn't go mental on the overclocking though and running Furmark and Prime95 together might push it close to the edge.

In "ordinary" use 650W is enough. You'll have to get the molex adapters out though as you need 4 PCI-E power connectors and I believe your PSU only has 2.

Bigger would be better but 650W should be OK.

What do you need a manual for?

Was to see what connectors on the PSU were on which rail Im sure this had multiple 12v rails and Ims ure they were split across the connectors.

 

[Surveyor]

It has multiple rails.
