Posted December 18, 2013 What the title says. Mine is buying a 850Watt power supply for a single GPU computer setup. I didn't listen to my friend and got an EA-750 for my 560 Ti when I was first getting into computers Edit: Oh, and I rushed to get one for my build and didn't get a modular one either. However, it did help teach me to cable manage.

You will always have "enough", even if you go 2-way Xfire/SLI. The extra money you spent would be on futureproofing I guess, which is far more valid to do with a PSU. † Christian Member † For my pertinent links to guides, reviews, and anything similar, go here, and look under the spoiler labeled such.

Posted December 18, 2013 NEVER LISTEN TO YOU PARENTS WITH TECHNOLOGY but but but my dad is an electrical engineer if u cant trust engineers who can you trust He wont have to buy a psu if he upgrades in the future. ok but when he does have to upgrade he will replace his single card with another single card. in which case video cards are getting more power effciant meaning he still doesnt need all that extra wattage.....
