I recently ordered the following form newegg...
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817153028
In retrospect I think I might have made a mistake. For one, I spaced out and didnt realize the damn thing doesnt have a power connector for my pci express video card. And two, it says the thing is NOT sli ready (something I would like to do down the road).
So two questions..
1.) Cant I just buy a 4 pin molex converter at comp usa and use that to power my video card? Is that safe?
2.) Isnt 500w really enough to do sli (two 8800gts)? I mean I dont have a lot of fans. Only one hd and one dvd player, thats it.
Sigh.. or maybe since it looks like the order hasnt shipped yet I can send newegg a email and change the order before monday morning... If the answer to my above to questions is 'no, youre screwed', can anyone please reccomend a good psu (from newegg pref) for around 50-70 bucks?
Thanks!
