Title: Highend power supply for 6 GPUs ?
Post by: Gelbstich on January 22, 2014, 12:03:55 AM
Hey there,

I'm currently thinking about buying the ASRock H61 Pro BTC with 6x R9 280X.  One gpu consumes at least 250 watt, so I'd need a power supply of 2000+ watt.. is there even a power supply with such a power?

Try the Lepa 1500W

I guess the max psu wattage would be around 1500, so you need dual PSU to support 6 280x.

Alright, thank you. So I'd need two power supplies with 1200-1500 watt each.. well that makes it a lot less profitable, as I only save the money for a second mainboard in this case  :-\
