PSU for HD4870X2???

mos187 · Nov 22, 2008

Will my Corsair HX620W PSU run teh Radeon HD4870X2 fine, or do i have to change the PSU, i know most people would recommend a higher watt psu for the HD4870X2 but i got some reply's on some other forum's that the corsair HX620W psu would run it just fine, so i needed another opinion from u guyz...

thanxx

Yep it would run just fine. But you won't be able to oc as far as others due to limited watts leftover.

Yep your Corsair PSU should handle it well. I do see your running 2 HDD's, 1 DVD drive, and your CPU at stock as long as your not running 12 case fans and 5 lights your should be smooth.

Yep it's very big. I had to trim a little of the back of my case to fit it. 3D Aurora should fit it assuming it's a full tower. But you might need to do some mods.
