750 Watts Cutting it too close?

Go to solution Solved by Aniallation,

I'm planning on SLI'ing my GTX 760 and I wanted to know if my psu can handle it.

Oh yeah, 750G2 will handle two 760s no problem. With SLI 760 you'll be pulling a maximum around 450-500W from your power supply, which the solid built 750 G2 is more then happy to provide.

It's 80+ Gold, that's more than fine

Plus, it should only take up 4-500 watts I think

Not even.

 

who uses a AMD FX 8320 at stock???

That is like super-slow-mode enabled ...

You wouldn't SLI 760s with a i3 or would you?

An i3 is pretty fucking fast..

I agree.

 

Using this calculator, it seems like it should be fine:

Last time I looked an SLI 760 system usually draws under 400W, with peaks around 450W.

I didn't know that ......

 

I was just worried that having 4 hard drives and a dvd drive might have factored in.
