Hi,

Before I start, please don't make suggestions about other graphics cards to get, much appreciated.

So, I currently have 2 GPU's in my system.
My whole system and 1 GPU run off a RM750 and then the second GPU runs of an RM650. Would it be possible to run another GPU off my RM650 or would I need to change PSU?

Bearing in mind that the PSU is only powering a graphics card and nothing else.
I have 2 G1 Gaming GTX 970's by Gigabyte for your reference.

Thanks for any help!

yes that should work no problem, although its not ideal.

2 power supplies just means an extra point of failure and could lead to more problems.

you could probobly run 2 970' off a single rm 750 and the whole system

I understand the issues with 2 PSU's but one of them was a gift not to long ago so I'm going to just get rid of it. Me and my mate both run two PSU's and haven't had any troubles yet what so ever. We both bought this little cable that connects the main PSU to the secondary PSU which starts the both simultaneously when I turn my computer off. As long as 650W is enough for 2 graphics cards my system will still run perfectly fine.
