    Sounds about right. I found this chart http://s26.postimg.org/a2lhv46qx/2mx2zd2.jpg where he uses a GTX670 2-way SLI. His max was 771w. I only plan on using one higher end card. Seems like AMD cards are more power hungry. Still puzzles me how that one guy on youtube hit >700w with just an...

This guy had a overclocked x5650 @ 4.0ghz and GTX 970 @ 1550mhz. The problem is that the power consumption was 700w! This is insane, I only have a...
