Default i7 920 + 2x gtx 275 = 750 watt?
I wanted to know if my Crosair 750 TX powersupply would suffice for this system.

GTX 275 X2
i7 920 @ 4.0ghz
4 Hdd's + 4 fans.


Thanks.

Alright, I was looking at some SLI charts and it showed 2x 275's hitting 400 watts under load.

Maybe for the whole system. One GTX 275 needs ~142W in games.

But thanks for the heads up, not worried i'll be short on power when the second gtx gets here.

You're fine. That should be what the whole system is pulling. Everything is exaggerated when it comes to power reqs.
