Does rtx 3080 support cs750m?

[Zoltus]

Hi, can you use rtx 3080 with cs750m powersupply?

Nope. Low quality unit will fail when put under pressure by a high wattage gpu.

Its high quality wont fail, but will it have slots for it?

cs750m is fine with rtx 2080 ti also

it is not high quality but it isnt bad either  but for rtx 3080 i woudl get something better

CS750m is B-tier. Not bad, but not great either. Corsair calls it a “basic unit for low energy use.”

 

If the unit has two available 8-pin PCIe power connectors it will hook up to the card, and according to Corsair it has four available, so it SHOULD work.

 

Nobody can say if it will run the RTX 3080 without issues or not, because they are not out yet, and we do not know if the cards will cause problems like the transient load issues that came up with Seasonic power supplies a few years ago.

As a matter of fact I have. Dual 780's blew through 2.

So you already know that a 3080 is going to use more power than two 780's in SLI?

 

(I also find it hard to believe you "blew" two CS750's at all.

No of course I do not know how much the 3080 will consume best one can do is guess. I just want op to be safe as they aren't the best units. Yeah the psu's didn't blew they just popped. The second was a warranty return from the first one that broke. After that the costumer let me place a better psu in the system and it ran fine. The cs750 then went on to live in a r9 290x system for 2 years before it broke again. Worked fine when in lower power use but the moment the 290x + 2700k really kicked in it shut down.
