hello guys My current PSU is XFX 650w modular edition , but im thinking to get one more HD5850 in my current system ! My current system HD5850 AMD 965 Single Hdd , and nothing else worth mentioning So my question is my psu strong enough for two cards ? thanks
amd 965be = 125-140w radeon 5850 = 150w other accessories = up to 100w (loose guess, probably lower in your case) 140+150+100= 390w used. 650w - 390w = 260w. since a 5850 only uses 150w ish (revised figure from amd), yes, you can handle one more 5850 in your system, and still have 110w+ of breathing room, assuming you dont OC. if you plan to OC, you may wish to upgrade your psu.
O hai, been using a 650 W TX to power two xfx 5850 black edition for 3 months now No problems at all, haters who say 650 w is not enough are gonna hate
It isnt that unusual for modern PSU that dont have OCP ? And can xfx 650 be compared to Corsair HX650 ? or TX650 ?
Xfx 650w is high quality PSU and enough for your system. Xfx 650w is same quality with Corsair Tx650 and Hx650w
