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 .

I trust you man but someone today was like you "NEED" to buy 750W power supply put doubt in my mind.

1000watts or bust TBH

With the 6990's I hope xD not my 6950's XD

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

What makes you say that only a 650w?

Masterdeadly · 4 Sep 2011 at 14:44

Really? by who?

Masterdeadly · 4 Sep 2011 at 14:53

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.

Masterdeadly · 4 Sep 2011 at 14:57

Well Saying a 600W won't cut one 6950 I don't believe.

Masterdeadly · 4 Sep 2011 at 15:00

Well If my Tx650w corsair can handle 2 6950's why can't a 600w handle 1?

Masterdeadly · 4 Sep 2011 at 15:08

I don't believe I do

Masterdeadly · 4 Sep 2011 at 15:11

XD I'll wait and see

Furmark at 506 watts

Masterdeadly · 4 Sep 2011 at 15:21

But it pushes everything to max power so a game can't go any higher than 506 surely

Definitely a game, maybe Chess? as this stresses the CPU a lot as it has to think the next move.

Thought you was joking xD

I've messaged Overclockers for their opinion on the whole 650w business.
