System Power Supply Requirements for a single MSI R9 280X TWIN FROZR GAMING OC EDITION
• AMD specifies a minimum of a
600 Watt or greater
system power supply. (Minimum system power requirement based on a PC configured with an Intel Core i7 3.2GHz 130 Watt TDP processor.)
• the system power supply must also have
a maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 42 Amps or greater
• the system power supply should also have at least
one 75-Watt 6-pin and one 150-Watt 8-pin PCI Express supplementary power connectors.
Total Power Supply Wattage is NOT the crucial factor in power supply selection!!! Sufficient Total Combined Continuous Power/Current Available on the +12V Rail(s) is the most critical factor.
Overclocking of the CPU and/or GPU(s) may require an additional increase to the maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current ratings, recommended above, to meet the increase in power required for the overclock. The additional amount required will depend on the magnitude of the overclock being attempted.
