Hey guys.

 

I am currently in the market for possibly two GTX 1080's for sli. My question is will my 750 watt power supply be enough? It is an EVGA G2 750

I have an i7 4790k and 16 gbs of ram in my pc currently. Thanks guys!

2x 200W without OC and about 100W for the CPU, add another 50W  ... You will not be at your efficiency sweetspot but it should work.

Would that mean it is just enough, or slightly overkill? I know it would be 200 watts away from the limit, but I'm asking for OCing reasons :P I won't if there isn't room, but just for reference if i decide to in the future.
