As ive said in another thread , im waiting on stock for an EVGA 580 gtx. Just wondering something. I know the 580 only needs a 600 watt psu minimum. i have a coolermaster M700 which says on the box max output 800watt. so i know that will be fine. I have heard 2 nvidia 460's aint a million miles off the 580? is that right and is it possible to get 2 cards that wont be too far off the 580 and that can run on that power supply. My 580 still says awaiting stock, its been 2 weeks and ive a feeling im in for a long wait.
 
what about the fact i only have that power supply the coolermaster M700?is that enough. i must also add im only paying 389 for my gtx 580.

just read on another forum that a corsair 750 is a good reccomendation
i dont know how yours compares to a corsair

£389 for an evga ?
add new vat on that, and the extra that they all like to add on because 580's are like hens teeth, = a lot more than £389,

yeah 389 for the evga 580. and theres no extra to be added as price as already been agreed. its been ordered 2 weeks. i ordered it from a well known site, not allowed to advertise and im not stupid enough. but if i tell you its a site on the outskirts on the uk with free postage you might know then. Please ocuk i am not advertising lol. i dont know if my power supply is good enough for 2 cards though.


Ok this is my power supply now http://www.overclock3d.net/reviews/power_supply/cooler_master_real_power_pro_m700_700w_modular_psu/1 , it isnt on ocuk anymore. Ive read this is a good psu and will work with sli. Do you guys think it would run with 2 of these http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-135-EA&groupid=701&catid=1914&subcat=1830 Im hoping it is enough. I would cancel my 580 gtx order then and get them. Or maybe 2 different ones as long as that psu is enough.
