I have just purchased a second GTX 760 as Metro Last Light needs a bit more grunt for me to be able to see it in all its glory. In my rush to buy one, I neglected to consider 2 things; my current case and PSU. I have a Be Quiet! Pure a Power 630w PSU which only has 2 6/8 pin plugs and I need four. I am looking for recommendations as to a decent make, decent price modular upgrade to cope with the 2 cards. Also, my case is a Fractal Desin Arc Mini with a Z77 G1 Sniper mobo and a 2nd card in SLI simply won't fit, so I need to change that as well, so any decent recommendations here would be welcomed also. Thanks. PS Please don't judge me!
For SLI 760s I'd say that a 700W PSU would be more than enough - you just need to choose one that's got enough PCIe plugs for your needs. Personally I'd recommend something by Seasonic, Enermax or Corsair. What's your budget?
Yep, 700-750w will be more than ample, especially when you look at what my rig can pull with the overclocks on my Tri SLI 670's 4GB and the CPU at 5GHz all from a 1kw PSU. Also give us a budget and we can help get you the best PSU.
How about this one http://www.scan.co.uk/products/750w-evga-supernova-g2-full-modular-80-plus-gold-135mm-silent-fan-eps-12v-sli-xfire-atx
It's bigger brother gets a good write-up on JonnyGuru http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story&reid=346 The only thing they mention is the length of some of the cables (almost too long - Page 2) but otherwise it seems very good
Went for the EVGA G2 750 Gold. Also bought a Corsair Obsidian 350D Windowed. The missus is going to kill me when she eventually finds out!
Missus found out but I stil live due in no small part to agreeing to the new dishwasher she has been banging on about for a while.
