Wondering if I add another 290, will my x750 (gold rated) keep up?
From what I've read, I should expect no more than 700w draw. Do I need to worry about spikes, though?
Thanks
EDIT: After much fruitful (and some fruitless) debate, I think a gold-rated 750w would be enough to power two 290s in their stock configuration, but I'd be running them a little closer to the edge than I'm comfortable with. I bumped up to the EVGA Supernova 850 B2. Should give me some room later if I ever have the need to overclock the cards.
