Is it possible to underclock a graphics card like R7 270x?
The 270x requires 2x 75watts (6-pins), and need more Wattage than the R7 270.
I have a PSU, but not sure how many Watts it produces, or rather how many Ampere it produces over the 12V line.
If it doesn't produce enough for the 270x, I could buy a new PSU. But I wanted to test first.
So, what if I buy this card, and the PSU doesn't provide enough power? Could I make the card draw less power by underclocking it?
Also what if I only have one and not 2x 6-pins? Could I still plugin just the one? Or will the computer not boot up then? I mean will the card still work but at lower performance?
