I just had a second GTX 260 go bad. The first one was two months ago, and now this one. The Rep I spoke to at BFG just happened to be the same guy I spoke to two months ago, and apparently he remembered me due to the fact I call at 4am. He told me the last card's problem was Fan failure. This card the fan stopped working as well, but it is intermittent. Now I went through all of the Nvidia drivers because I know of the Fan issues recently. The BFG guy suggested it might be a PSU problem. I checked the Molex connector when the fan failed and all of the legs had 12V of course, I can't check the AMPs because I don't have an Amp Clamp.
Realistically, should 650 watts cover SLI 260s and an i7? I know I have a high wattage Fan, but it does not run on high very often. Also the first GPU failed before I installed high AMP fans.
Any thoughts?
