Title: TOO MUCH LOAD on Power Supply? BOOM...FIRE???? Post by: ibrahim11 on January 04, 2014, 05:11:45 PM Hi, my mining rig is:
AMD SEMPRON 145 COOLERMASTER HYPER 212 EVO SANDISK 128GB SSD SAPPHIRE 7950 and MSI 280x (using 2 powered pci riser cables) ASROCK EXTREME4 970 - MOTHERBOARD 2x 2GB G.Skill 1333mHz Ram CORSAIR RM750 FULLY MODULAR GOLD 80+ Power Supply. Some people say this is enough power for my rig. Is it enough though- because some psu calculators say I need more? How much will my rig consume? At the moment I am waiting for my mobo to come so I can put it together :) Title: Re: TOO MUCH LOAD on Power Supply? BOOM...FIRE????

your PSU have more than enough power to power up your rig. Title: Re: TOO MUCH LOAD on Power Supply? BOOM...FIRE???? Post by: ibrahim11 on January 04, 2014, 07:10:43 PM you will be just fine! your PSU have more than enough power to power up your rig. How many cards could i use on this? Title: Re: TOO MUCH LOAD on Power Supply? BOOM...FIRE???? Post by: vpasic on January 04, 2014, 07:33:59 PM undervolt both card and you will be fine.
you'll need another psu to power up more gpu-s. Title: Re: TOO MUCH LOAD on Power Supply? BOOM...FIRE???? Post by: ibrahim11 on January 04, 2014, 07:48:30 PM undervolt both card and you will be fine. you'll need another psu to power up more gpu-s. but without undervolting i am still fine?
