TX 650W Corsair

Masterdeadly · 4 Sep 2011 at 13:58

I'm looking to crossfire two 1gb 6950's with the power supply noted above.

My system specs are as follows:

Amd 955 Black edition from 3.2 overclocked to 3.61ghz

8gb XMS3 1600MHZ corsair ram

Seagate Barricuda 500g 7200 RPM

And of course the 2 6950's (Will not being overclocking)

I was curious on peoples opinions if I could power all of this with my power supply.

Thank for reading my post .

Already said it would handle the cards in the thread below, only downside would be using PCI-E to molex adapters.

The PSU is a good purchase below:

Your Corsair is a quality unit and would handle everything thrown at it.

Considering Anandtech shows the cards and system pulling 500w with Furmark running, this puts max strain on the cards and this would be a high end system like a slightly overclocked i7 system

So all Is good ? as you guys are extremely helpful I was wondering If I would benefit from a AMD 1090t 3.2ghz processor?

Only a 650w? Wow!

Masterdeadly · 4 Sep 2011 at 14:42

What makes you say that only a 650w?

Just the advice I was given on my single 6950, weird.

I trust RLC

and stulid

seem to know what they're talking about. I think they were only suggesting a new PSU because yours was bad quality.
