PSU wattage

[akira282]

Assuming enough amperage, and 3 rails at 700 watts, is it possible to do either crossfire or sli? Or do I need more power?

Thanks again for all the support.

What brand is the PSU and is it SLI/Crossfire certified?

and also what are you trying to SLI/Crossfire?

 

[akira282]

The brand is Ocz, here it is :http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...&cm_mmc=TEMC-RMA-Approvel-_-Content-_-text-_-

Oh yea definetly. OCZ is a very good brand and should be able to SLI card up to 9800 GTX+ and possibly 4870 in crossfire

 

[akira282]

I'm not sure yet. I was thinking maybe 4870 ati or nvidia equivalent

 

[Holysky]

i woulld probaly bump it up to this for the 4870 just to be safe

If you intend to run anything that's a high end graphic's card like the 4780 or the 260 or card's like those, I'd suggest a 800-1000 watt just to be on the safe side.

you would need 850- 1000 for 3 of the high end cards like the 295. I think 700 would be good for 2
