Asus strix 970 with Enermax 525w PRO82+ PSU

[wilima]

Hi,

Can you confirm that i can run this card with this 4years old PSU Enermax 525w PRO82+.

If am i right, my PSU has 3x 12V rail with 25A (please correct me). The whole power should be about 40A for all 12V rails together.

The Asus gpu has only one 8pin connector so i am not able to balance multiple 12v rails. Is it ok to run this card with single 12v rail? (One 6+2 pcie connector)

Now i am running gtx 560 with 2x 6pin with no problems.

(My spec i5 2500k, 4x 4Gb croshair vegance, 3x wd green 3x ssd)

Thank you!

why not buy a 2 6pin to 1 8pin adapter and use that?
the minimum requirements for the 970 is a 500 watts psu, so go for the adapter
