Need power supply help.

MartenM · January 27, 2016

I am going to build a computer soon that will have a 6600k and 2 GTX980's so i was wondering what wattage power supply i will need for this, i also want to overclock the parts a bit,

i am looking at the EVGA SuperNOVA 850 G2, but i am not sure if 850 watt is enough for these parts.

1. 850W is more than enough

2. Why start with 980 SLI? Go for a single 980ti or something like that so you wont have the issues of SLI. The R9 Fury outperforms the GTX 980 anyways.

With the start of point 2, 980 SLi Destroys a 980 Ti performance wise, and there arent many issues with SLi anymore, with crossfire even less, long story short go AMD For this price. (But Fury's are faster, cheaper and better driver support.)
