Hi

I currently own one Asus GTX 670 and am wanting to maybe get another one.
Would there be much point?, i have a Single Monitor at 1920x1080, my PSU is only a OCZ 700w and have been informed to get a new Corsair TX750 as it comes with a lot more cables aswell as being a better PSU
 
If you add another card, you would ideally need a new PSU due to lack of cables on your current one (presuming it's a ModXstream?)

As for whether it's be worth it, do you struggle with anything at all ATM?
 
yeah i know about that im new to this so not really sure what PSU to get someone recommended this

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-000-XF

Its says Out of Stock, if i buy one will they get one in stock or do i need to wait until they are back in?

and doesnt really struggle, i play Skyrim with ENB mods and still get good FPS, its only really been Far Cry, with everything turned on i only get 22 FPS and am anticipating Crysis 3 to be similar and i want to run that smoothly on Ultra
 
 
Personally, I wouldn't add another card for FC3. Most people, even those with multi-gpu, are finding the performance leaves a lot to be desired. Maybe wait and see how Crysis 3 runs on your rig / res.

If you have 120hz and want it for the smoothness then go for it mate, I'm going SLI for 120hz + 3D vision @ 1080pp :)
 
Ok, iv decided il buy a new PSU as my current one needs upgrading anyway, i think il go with the Corsair Enthusiast Series TX850M at the moment and will look at adding a new GFX in a couple of Months
 
Ok il get Seasonic, my only concern was that there werent as many modular cables as thats whats wrong with my current PSU and i also didnt notice that they were the same price
 
I confused myself i bought the Silverstone, is that a good PSU? Also delivery is fairly expensive here, i go to work tomorrow for 2 weeks and yet im still going to have to pay a tenner for next day :(
