Topic: Velox build Posted: 01 Dec 2014 at 6:33am |
I just ordered my Velox setup a few weeks ago and I am waiting on a back ordered part now. I have some extra credit on my account to spend on upgrades. What I am wondering is if my Power supply is going to be sufficient enough for this build. Here is the build. Thanks all!

Hi robjmag89... Welcome to the forums and Congrats on the order.
Real nice rig. The 750watt is fine for the sli gtx 970's. If you can , the EVGA 850watt SuperNova for another $56 does give you more headroom, although you are good, but also gives you a Gold vs Bronze efficiency rating, a 10 year vs 3 year warranty and a fully modular vs semi modular unit. The semi modular cabling means the motherboard cables are hardwired, the others plug-in. The fully modular of the 850w SuperNova has all the cables plug-in for easier replacement if ever needed. The 750 watt is very good, the 850 watt is better and has some nice features for the extra $$. Hope this helps. |

You're welcome. If the case is still on back order, then it shouldn't be an issue. They can test individual components but can't get far without the case to put it all together. Call or email the change as soon as you can.
Stay in touch. |
