Yet another 9800GX2 thread

[Prophet]

hey guys, sorry for yet another 9800GX2 thread, but i have a question. Running on a Q6600 with 3 HD's and 9 case fans, do you think the Corsair 620HX will be able enough to power one of these babies? As well the NDA expires on the 18th, so for those of you who are keeping on eye on it there should be specs/ benchies revealed around that time.

oh yeah a 620hx could power one. im not sure if it could power two though. (thats what my goal for this system is.)

 

[Prophet]

Man two GX2's would be sick......I would love to have a setup like that but my monitor only has a 720p native reso, and i dont game enough to justify the cost. Only thing is i'm 90% positive my step up will run out before the GX2 comes out, so If anyone wants a 8800GTS 512mb i might be looking at selling it.

a 520hx would power 2. 620hx certainly would.

Most non pos's 500 watt psus would power 2.

*sighs* bought a 8800gts 512 hoping for step up also...please let there be a miracle! freakin 512 can barely keep up with 1680x1050 for some reason...o well.
something better please come out in 5 days!

you are insane. that is such a long wait and there will be so much new stuff out by then.

When the HD4870X2 comes out it will be better than every other card for sure.

i dunno about that one.. my antec trio 650 watt was having a hard time w/ dual gtx's... 3 hdd's and an oc'd q6600

it should no problem, an hd3870 x2 (two of them) could run off the corsair 520hx, and since the 620hx is the same thing except for those other rails (used by HD's and what not) its more than enough
