Hi, ive just found a second 5870 cheap of ebay so i currently have a corsair tx650w PSU,

Im basically uprading my pc each time i get paid,today lol.
So will 650w see me till next payday or do i need a new psu for certain? will it hold out?

Cpu is amd 965 so i cant see that being pwer hungry..?

Cheers in advance.

James,

Just install your second card and hook it up. You're fine with room to spare.
