Topic: I pulled the trigger on Monday. Posted: 06 Aug 2009 at 4:08pm |
I just got and email saying my new puter is at stage 6.
I guess that means that the big momma computer's contractions are really close together now. Questions: I plan to add a second video card later. I only got the 750W PS, will I have to upgrade the PS to 1000W when I add the other video card? How do you know how much PS power you need? Also; Can you run duel monitors if they are not alike? Can I run my 21 inch CRT and a 23 inch LCD? Here is my build.

ok well for 2 x 285 you can try and run it with teh 750w but you are pushing it.
and yes you can run dual monitor if they are different. Edited by DST4ME - 06 Aug 2009 at 4:26pm |
