Alright, I'm trying to come to grips with this and make sure my 750W PSU is going to be enough for this system.
Antec 300
Core i7 920
ASUS P6T Deluxe V2
2x 750GB WD Caviar Blacks in RAID1
1x 1TB WD Caviar Green
2x GTX 275
(old) Creative XtremeGamer PCI Sound card
(old) Hauppauge HVR 2250 PCIe TV tuner.
Corsair 750W (750TX)
I've run a full stress test on this machine (3dMark Vantage, HD Tune drive scan for both volumes, wPrime to stress the CPU to 100%). According to the UPS I have, the system is only drawing 550W at peak load.
I'd like to think that is realistic, but when nVidia claims the GTX 275 can use up to 219W each and I know the Core i7 is drawing near 100-130W during operation, I want to do a sanity check because I am not sure how much more power the rest of the system needs.
So does anyone else have a similar setup? Are you getting roughly the same figures?
