joxley1990 Golden Master Messages 7,846 Jun 27, 2006 #2 Do you not mean "How many Watt PSU" ? I would say, yeah it will handle it, but will be loud, and will get hot. I would buy an SLI 550-600W PSU, just to be on the safe side.

T Transam Beta member Messages 4 Jun 27, 2006 #8 I think the minimum for SLI is 400w needed, so to be safe i would go to 500-550watt. I am running a SLI of 7800's and my 550 watt dose the trick. I have an Ultra X2 Connect Power Supply
