I recently acquired an Evga Supernova 750G2 for a good price for an upgrade to my HTPC. After I got it, I noticed it was almost as large of a unit as my old 1200 Watt PSU and would not fit the HTPC . I am now wondering if it would be a decent replacement for an almost 3.5yr old Coolermaster Silent Pro 1000Watt PSU in my main rig or am I cutting it close power wise?
I do plan on running a Nvidia 970 or 980 plus a 650ti or so in the near future. I fold and run WCG on all of my rigs, so that is why I was going for that additional mid grade GPU in addition to the 970or 980
The 970 or 980 is the only thing I will be changing in the near term, so I was wondering if the following would be ok when I got the new card?
Intel 3770 K @ 4.20
Gigabyte Z77-UD5H
about 7 or 8 fans total( mainly noctua's and Gentle Typhoons)
GTX 970 or 980 and a 650ti ( currently using 2 660ti's)
3 HDD's , 1SSD, Blue Ray burner, sound card
a custom jerry rigged 4 way light switch to LEDs across the room (roughly 25W on 12V rail if all lights are on)
Would I be better off replacing that 3 year old Coolermaster with the new 750W Evga or would the 750 be cutting it too close to the limit ? I currently pull roughly 475Watts max from my UPS readout while folding on both of my current two 660ti's and crunching with 75% of the CPU . Thanks in advance and my bad on any and all grammar errors. I had a few to drink.
Edit: I should mention this is a 24/7 rig.
