Ran FireStrikeX with a mild OC to see how much watts I'm using with CrossFire and TigerSun hit 820watts. Not bad, this EVGA SuperNOVA 1300 G2 PSU runs great I'll post wattage for TriFire soon.....
Installed in the 4770K
Tests, both GPU's PowerColor R9 280X's Passed with flying Colors
Last pic: Stock settings, 4770K, Gig z87x-oc, PowerColor R9 280X CrossFire
Thanks Guys Leak testing, can't wait to run some benches
Acuradude, Their great I don't know if I'm going to water cool the forth GPU as I'm at my limit (pump and rads) I would have to run dual pumps and change out the top rad for a Monsta 480 LOL
Ran 3DMark 11 with a mild OC on the CPU 4.5GHz bumped up tirfire to 1200/1775 and hit 1174watts with EVGA SuperNOVA 1300 G2 PSU if I run a max OC on everthing it may take two PSU's like Doc said I'd have to use the Antec HCP 1200 watt with this EVGA SuperNOVA 1300 G2 PSU. I'll give it a shot later
After studying the data and pics of the 4 PowerColor R9 280x GPU's, I see two of the first PowerColor GPU's have diff mem then the two I received from Acuradude. The first two have Hynix mem and the second two have Samsung mem, they all have the same release date. I've noticed the ones with Samsung mem overclock higher yet run hotter on air.
I've been running 3 GPU's for in my rigs for years and the middle card always runs HOTTER then the rest, not so with water cooling
