Is my psu good for 2 rx 480 crossfire

[MatthewLynch]

Hi, I have a Seasonic M12II evo 620W PSU and a i7-6700k cpu. Will it be enough for two rx 480 in corssfire or should I go with one gtx 1070?

thanks

It is enough, but you should get a 1070

Just go for the dual RX480. If you would need to get a new PSU, just buy one.

Umm idk due to the power issues that have been reported with the 480, I'd hold off on crossfire with the 480 until AMD addresses the issue

 

Oh the 1070 is what I would recommend as well since it is about equal to 480 xfire with less issues

Either way I'd recommend the 1070 as well, due to xfire/sli being unsupported in some games

always go with the fastest single card so 1070

ye at the moment its still better to have a single card.. but I rly doubt it for the future... with dx12 and vulcan coming who knows...

They sap too much power from the PCI express slot on motherboards due to having a 6-pin power connector and not an 8-pin which would solve this problem. Thus, don't buy an RX480 until one with an 8-pin is released. You could also buy a single 1070 which is a much better buy since Crossfire and SLI are annoying.
