gaming PC PSU question

Recommended Posts

I'm wondering about GPU. My intel build is sitting with gtx 670 2 way sli and has a 750w psu
AMD build has 3way hd 7970s crossfire. Would I be able to put the AMD cards into the intel build w/o having to upgrade my PSU or would it it be better to just let stand as is.

I would say you need a beefier PSU. This is a chart of 2 7970's in crossfire. At the bottom is power consumption. If you were to do this, I wouldn't get a PSU any lower than a kilowatt.


I can neither confirm nor deny myself being the cause of electrical related malfunctions. Anyways, you wouldn't happen to have a jar of replacement magic smoke would you?
