so getting a 700 watt psu and another 7870 (400 total) is more efficient than getting a 7970? or would i just be pushing it if i xfired with the 600psu
Well I was debating wether or not to crossfire my 7870. Problem being that I only have a 600watt PSU from Corsair. My rig: i5 2500k @ 4.2, H100 push/pull, MSI 7870 @ 1200/1450, and a 200 mm side fan. Could my psu handle another 7870 or should i just save a little more to get a gtx 670, 7950, or a 7970? 7870 250+ new psu 100 total cost around 350 plus tax.
Ive overclocked my msi twn frz III 7870 to 1200/1450 on stock voltage and i want to see if i cant get a little more out of it. When i go to the afterbuner and try to increase the voltage it won't let me. I've gone to settings and unlocked voltage control but still the same.
I've got a corsair 600 watt builder Psh. Currently powering my rig with a i5 2500k at 4.2 ghz, corsair 100 push/pull, intel mobo, msi 7870 an a 200mm fan. Would it be able to handle another 7870? And what type of performance would I see? Compared to what latest card?
With amd gpu price drop I've been considering going crossfire. I already own an msi 7870 and was thinking of grabbing another one, speciffically the msi hawk edition. My question being, would it be better to go crossfire or should I save up and get a 680 or 7970 instead.
