What do you think about X2-7950's vs getting X2-7970's
I'm currently shopping around for Dual 7900 series cards
I searched around on the AMD site and so far couldn't get a real positive answer to how much of a PSU is needed to run dual cards
I was under the impression that you needed atleast a 1000 watt PSU to handle dual 7970's
I run a 850 watt Corsair AX850 Gold
I searched Microcenter and Newegg I found MSI Twin Frozr 7950's for the price of 2 of those i can clock them pretty decent and it would be just as good right as having the 7970
My problem is now with my Power draw and Overclock
My specs are filled out below
Also these are the cards that were the least expensive but already come factory Overclocked and I happen to have a 6870 version of it as well
Anyway I have 2 Price points and well the higher one is Microcenter I can just go there in person the other is Newegg anyway if you have any better type cards with in the price range of the frozrs let me know
If anyone knows about the power consumption of these cards in crossfire or use them in crossfire what kind of PSU are you using so many questions before i decide to get them
