Easily!

A Corsair TX750 or above would be sufficient for one card, I would say you would want at least the TX950 for 2 5870x2 (5970?) cards.

Ya Im getting a 5970

Conflict0s · Nov 15, 2009

By saying "5870x2" I presume you mean the 5970.
But yes you will be able to run it with that PSU and your current system.
You will evan be able to run 2 5870's with that PSU

EDIT: Ion beat me to it

p_o_s_pc · Nov 15, 2009

you will for sure be able to run it. Maybe consider a cheaper 1kw PSU?

EDIT:you can get the PSU cheaper at newegg

Not with you behind the wheel...but with me behind the wheel hell YES its fast.

The PSU is a good one and a good choice...I have seen fireworks coming from cheap PSU's and thats scary when you have $1000's riding on it!

Your current system with a 5870x2 will probably never consume more than 700Watts max.

3volvedcombat · Nov 18, 2009

Ya i think a 850 modular from corsair should be enough for even that rig with 2 HD 5890's maybe, You guys and your crazy 1k psu's. With 20 rails LOL! :laugh:

Please tell of which 2 is better from my last post XD

For one card, I say even this is an overkill.
Even a good 600W/650W will handle a single card fine.
I wouldn't bother getting a 5970 if I am using XP....

or a stock q6600...

or a 22" screen at god knows what res..

oh the old hardware that'll fill the FS/T forum and the upgrades that will be made to make full use of the new stuff.. the vicious cycle... the hardware bug.

$600 card might cost $1100 in the end. I say DO IT!

PLease share where you managed to find one. And i somewhat ROFL'd at 5970 with Q6600 and XP

Shameless plug: If anybody needs a new PSU for running a 5970, I've got a nice one for sale in my sig!

I agree that a 600Wish PSU should be plenty for a mildly overclocked i7 system or any 775 system with one.
