Re: psu watts minimum for 8800gtx sli setup
The 750 is plenty of power but, the HX-1000 is modular if you want that feature.

Re: psu watts minimum for 8800gtx sli setup
a 750w PSU would probably do the job, just make sure it has plenty of amperage on the 12v rail and you'll be okay..
and make sure it's no generic cheap crap either... |

Re: psu watts minimum for 8800gtx sli setup
silverstone 750 watt modular psu = 117.49 got water cooling as mentioned plus 8 120mm fans and 4 80mm fans, just spoke to mate on phone he seems to think that i will need the 750 watts, just to be on the safe side. especially as i will be overclocking as well.
