Hey guys I have a new Corsair TX750W v2 that I bought and had installed a few weeks ago and is basically brand new. I also currently have been using an XFX HD 6870 Black Edition with my 32'' Samsung 720p monitor at 1280x720p. I am currently upgrading to an ASUS 24'' LED 1280x1080 (full HD LED Monitor, 2ms response time) this week. I want more graphics power because I don't think just one 6870 black edition will be enough especially for Battlefield 3. Now my question is will my 750W Corsair TX750 v2 80 plus bronze be good enough for 2 XFX HD 6870 Black Editions in CrossfireX?





Specs:

Videocard: XFX HD 6870 Black Edition
Processor: i5 2500K @ 4.7Ghz
Mainboard: Gigabyte Z68X UD3H-B3
Memory: 8GB G.Skill Ripjaws 1600
Soundcard: ASUS Xonar DG 5.1
PSU: Corsair TX750W v2

Yes.
It has ample power and the correct pci-e power connectors needed without using adapters.
Perfect situation.

Oh so it'd work perfectly in my setup then? I have a HAF 912 gaming case as well, should have more then enough room I think as well.

You have a full ATX m/b, and it will have a slot between 2 double slot cards from the pictures I just looked at newegg. That's ideal for cooling.

I have an ASUS Xonar DG 5.1 in the pci slot as well. But, yeah so it should work very well? I also have a case fan blowing in from the side for the gpus.
