    PSU for GTX770 SLI

    Hi,

    I currently have an OCZ ZS 750W psu running my PC which includes a single GTX770. On Saturday I should be receiving a 2nd GTX770.

    I've not be able to find a definitive answer as to whether my current psu is up to the job. So far my research on google has come up with 'maybe' with similar systems between 700w and 850w.

    Should my psu not be good enough is there any risk to the other components or will I just notice instability or worst case, not booting?

    I do plan to upgrade my psu in future but if I can get away with the OCZ for the time being that would be good.

    Thanks

    Glad to hear everything worked out! Just one last thing to add: Watch out if you attempt to overclock any of your components (CPU or GPU); things might get a little wishy-washy without the extra headroom.

    Well this is an old thread, but he's got the extra headroom.
