OP OP I insane84722 In Runtime Messages 201 Mar 19, 2009 #15 Yes, I know. With a quad core, high end mb, 8gb ram, 2 dvd-rw, 3 7200 rpm hds and 2 4800 series cards, I get 689w. I have Newegg.com - CORSAIR CMPSU-750TX 750W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply - Power Supplies and will get a highier one if needed.

newbiebuilderguy Banned Messages 326 Mar 19, 2009 #18 My recommendation is at least 1000 watts. that's all You miscalculated somehow.
OP OP I insane84722 In Runtime Messages 201 Mar 19, 2009 #19 Kind of hard to select the wrong thing on the calculator. If you want a picture, say so. You can also show me how your getting your figures.
