PSU for 7990

A good quality 750W is ample. 650W would be OK on a budget but you'll run closeish to capacity.

Corsair, XFX, Seasonic, Antec and the like sell good PSUs.
 
Hopefully someone will come along and recommend some specific models. I'm not up to date on which are currently the best models.
 
I went for this one in the end.
"Be Quiet Power Zone 850W '80 Plus Bronze' Fully Modular Power Supply"

Oh and I ended up getting the his 280x instead of a 7990.
 
How come? :confused:

I was going to use the 7990 for mining litecoins and carry on gaming on my 7950 but then I realised the hashrate on 7990 isn't as good as I thought plus I been told 7990 is a bit too hot for 24/7 mining.

The 280x gets good hashrate and should be plenty for my gaming (1080p 60hz bf4).

Then I will leave my 7950's on 24/7 mining.

If I had gone with the 7990 I would still be gaming on a 7950 but this way I'm on the 280x for gaming.
