Not if you buy the Seasonic 1250W gold 80+ it's modular(cables plug into PSU and components so you dont have a lot of clutter. The PSU comes with straps to organize the wires as well. Very good setup in the PSU box. Best PSU out IMO.

The Milk Crate route with a tiny twist.. just set the cards at a 45 degree angle to help cooling and put a 15$ box fan on the top. Cards stay about 75 C or less.

Also powered with two 750w PS as that is cheaper than one 1200w PS.. using the add2psu.com module.

Also this draws ~1200 watts at the wall, and does ~2.4Mh/s. I can probably improve this some, just have not had the time.



That is a cool looking rig, but aren't you kind of adding 2 points of failure?

the only thing I object to is the 7950, I have 2 and all I can think of is that I am losing 200 K/Hs than if I had 7970s, and I just ordered 2 from Amazon last night and they showed up at my door this morning before I woke up. I was impressed.

All my 7950's happy sit at 650.  One of them gets 680-690.  You just need to find your cards g-spot.
