Hello,

Just wondering if 800 watts is enough to
crossfire 2 HIS 7950. I saw somewhere that
the card only pulls 210 watts...

Thanks.

If it's a reliable 800W PSU your fine no worries.Here is Guru3D's power supply recommendation:

Radeon HD 7950 - On your average system the card requires you to have a 500~550 Watt power supply unit.
Radeon HD 7950 Crossfire x2 - On your average system the cards require you to have a 700 Watt power supply unit as minimum.
Radeon HD 7950 Crossfire x3 - On your average system the cards require you to have a 850~900 Watt power supply unit as minimum.

If you are going to overclock GPU or processor, then we do recommend you purchase something with some more stamina. Source: http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/radeon_hd_7950_crossfire_review_2_and_3_way,5.html
