Thoroughbreed Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Hi, i have a slight problem - I'm not sure if I've got enough wattage to run my system Current system: Sapphire PURE CrossFireX 770 (PC-AM2RX780) AMD Phenom Black 9950 (2600 mhz, quad core) Sapphire Radeon HD 4850X2 (2 gb ram) 1 x Maxtor whatever sATA HDD (80 gb) 1 x Samsung whatever sATA HDD (81 gb) 2 x CD/DVD-combo I dont think I've forgot something My current PSU is a 460 watt Thermaltake (obviously not enough!) What to choose then? I've been looking at a 750 watt PSU, but I'm not sure if that is enough -- and if it is -- Is 750 watt enough for two 4850 X2s in x-fire? Hope u can help =D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope u can help =D two 4850x2's in Xfire on 750W may be pushing it. you may want an 850W, that should be enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeAreNotAlone Posted September 2, 2009 Posted September 2, 2009 go all balls out and get a 1000 watt power supply. that way you can plug your coffee maker into it also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
