Title: PSU for GTX 1070 FTW (Double 8 pin connector)
Post by: gabrielomana on June 29, 2017, 10:59:01 PM
Hey Folks, I have 3 1070 with dual 8 pin connector and 3 gtx 1070 with single 8 pin connector. What PSU do I need? If using 2 PSU, which ones should I use? I thought one of 1000w and one of 750w. Please help me!. Thanks in advance.

I would go with an EVGA P2 1200 W or 1000 W at minimum for the VGA's That has six PCI-E connectors, six 6+2 cables and two 6-pin pigtail cables. I would use three 8-pin splitters for the double connector cards. Use a second EVGA P2 750W for all six of the risers, motherboard and accessories. That comes with four PCI-E connectors and you can use the two pigtail cables from the 1200 W to power six 6-pin PCI-E risers.

You could also go with a single EVGA 1600 W G2 or P2. That comes with nine PCI-E connectors and five 6-pin pigtail cables.
