Just would be the answer, because the TX650, if I'm reading correctly only has a couple of PCI-E Connectors and each 6850 would require one! Hanging in by a thread, in my opinion something like the Corsair HX650W would offer better value for an extra tenner... http://www.scan.co.uk/products/650w...bronze-85-eff-sli-crossfire-eps-12v-120mm-fan Get over 20 constructive posts in these forums and you can also get free delivery from SCAN... http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=186923
so basically, power-wise, it absolutely would run it. almost twice over...but as blogins has pointed out, if you ever upgrade your gpu situation to a dual card setup with the need for 2 pci cables each, then you would have to resort to molex to pci-e adapters, which isn't the way to go. if you see that as a possibility in the next couple of years, grab the hx as suggested...
Ahh shucks I agree with blogins. You are getting alot more PSU for 10 pounds. DO you have the two 6850 already? One single card might be better for the job and go crossfire later? Maybe somethinf like the 6950
i havnt ordered cards yet guys just thought that two 6850's would be more powerful than a single 6950?
