Thanks for the suggestion but here (on the north of spain) there are very limited choices off good psu brands...

Hi, Yesterday I installed the corsair and it looks great. Sadly I've discovered that in my mtherboard ga p55 usb3 the second pcie is 4x running at half speed so for the moment I forget looking for a second card because with the poor cooling and bad percormance of the second card I'll be...

I guess that by the time there's a serious damage the 6950 will be obsolete with the new generation of games and cards coming this fall... (unless under crossfirex) But I'm sure I will not buy a second hand 6950 as they are so good overclocking, most likely all second hand ones will be...

Hi, in a local shop not web i get the corsair at 169€ so even if I own some thermaltake hard that I like; I think corsair here is a better deal I appreciate the suggestion thanks

I want a 100%trustable psu and do not feel like going for a not so well known unit Corsair has a very good reputation and i've read multiple users of these psus in 6950 crossfire. The second option was antec 900w unit that has a good review in jonnyguru. Thanks

Hi, I'm following your advice and orderning a Corsair AX850... later on I'll see if I get the second 6950 (probably not a directcu as it takes too much space, 2.5 slots) thanks

hi, Yesterday after installing 11.5 drivers the system was quite unstable and after a couple of blue screens I removed the previous drivers using the drivers funtion and the installed them again an everything came back to normal... In my unlocked 6950 uniengine works perfectly under 11.5...

Hi, I'm considering buying a second Asus 6950 directcu II to put it in crossfire with the one I own. But I have two concerns: 1st is with half a slot between them of my gigabyte p55usb3 motherboard, will have enough for cooling the pcie 1 or not? 2nd I have a 700w tacens power...
