what operating system are you using? and how much of your power supply is getting used up?

[rlaginha1]

Windows Vista 64b

Coolermaster 1250W. Dont use COrsair 1000W as it will burn :D.

[SPLITZRZR]

nice how much money

[rlaginha1]

3000€

thanks

[rlaginha1]

good point. Was not customer request. Also the provided WB do not match high flow tubbing like this 1/2". So you will need 3rparty WB like EK. The radiator tripple at top and 3 noctua fans will help cooling of VRM mosfet and also Northbridge due to heatpipes connections.

thanks for comment.

fuck you

[ArnoldHC]

do you think a 700w power is enough for a ATI Radeon HD 4850 Dual

[Plushyness]

@ArnoldHC Yes, more then enough.

[ThoseGuysWithGits]

your pc never ever uses 1250W!

i have an phenomx4 @3,5Ghz, hd5850 and i use an 550W and it works fine

@rlaginha1 actually i installed 2 x hd4870x2 on a Asus rampage 2 Extreme + i7 920@4ghz + 6gb ddr3 @ 1600mhz and had no problems USING A COOLERMASTER REAL POWER 850W, i have a zalman mfc2 which shows the power consumption of the system and it reached a peak of 792w(3d mark Vantage), my psu proved 2 b a monster i was so proud of it!

but i have to say that after a few tests i took off one card as i didnt need that much power! i scored 27700 3d marks on vantage, what's your score?

btw nice rig man!

@rlaginha1

I use Corsair 1000w and it`s working fine:)

[XicoPalma]

lol tenho a mesma board e cpu ;D bem fixe :D

[BKsMassive]

you do realise only a couple of game support crossfire and one or two support tri-fire so non will support Quadfire xD

[ghepzsketchworx]

nice rig but the cable management is sucks...

[safuenzo86]

hd 4870x2 now alot cheaper than before.u can get 2 of hd 4870x2 for 400us.thanks to hd 5870 because of this card hd4870x2 becomes cheaper.~~

[HatlabuFarkas]

my setup is almost the same. 4870x2 with Q9775 CPU in ABIT X38

[MarklarRavencrest]

I'm thinking of getting another HD4870x2 just to see how QuadCrossfire does. But is my Phenom 2 940+ and 8 gigs of DDR2 ram (1066) gonna be bottlenecking the GPU's?
