PSU for HD 7950

[Guest]

Hey I was planning to buy a hd 7950. I have antec ea-500 80 plus bronze power supply. I just wanted to ask if it's enough for it.

Depends on your system as a whole.

I had an overclocked Phenom II x6 1090T with 2 HD 7950s in Crossfire and several hard drives. Crysis 3 pushing the CPU and both GPUs over 90% average would draw 600w+ from the wall.

500-550w should be plenty for 1 HD 7950. Just make sure you are getting a good quality PSU.

It should be enough, just don't start overclocking till you get a new PSU 😉 http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story4&reid=35
