Enough power for crossfire

[CoolUserName]

I want to build a pc with 2 msi r9 280 and I want to know if a 750w psu is enough to power them.

[Shd0w2]

Yes, but do you want to OC? also, what CPU do you have?

[Rorgash]

yes, easily

[TheNinjaNextDor]

More than enough.

[PhantomTates]

how many amps? you need about 40A for this to work.

[helping]

If amd chip, 850w, if intel chip 750w, if 2011 socket 850w. 

[Wats]

2x 280s? A good 650w would leave room for some overclocking.

 

Deff go for 750-850w though, it'll be quieter.

Give us the full pc specs and whether you already have the psu or planning to get one before we give you the green light

I would upgrade the CPU first.

Okay, but besides that it should be fine right?

FX6300 has a 95W TDP, a 280 used 225W under load in a review on Hexus. 750W should be enough, yes.
