Hi guyz, quick question here, will the Corsiar HX620 be enough for an HD5850 crossfire setup or not, the recommended PSU wattage by AMD for an HD5850 crossfire config. is 600w, just wanted to double check...

Thanxx..

thanxx W1zzard, i was really confused because most reviews recommend above 650w psu's for that setup but the AMD support page shows 600w is required, so if am gonna have to upgrade the psu then cannot go for that setup (kinda low on budget), but if my HX620 can hold up then 5850CF it is....

I have mine crossfired with a Corsair TX750 with three hard drives and a i7 slighty overclocked, and I have had no issues.

the HD 5850's consume less power than the previous gen 4850's and I have crossfired 2 of those on a HX 520w ;) your 620w is ample :toast:
