I currently have a SeaSonic M12II 620w running a XFX HD7950 and i5-3570k.
I'm considering picking up a second 7950 in the near future. Problem is, my PSU only has one 6pin and one 6+2pin, and from the looks of it 620w would be cutting it close with overclocking.
My questions.
1. For the problem of the connectors, I've seen molex to 6/8pin adapters but are they recommended?
2. Worth the upgrade? Newegg currently has an OCZ Fatal1ty 750W for $90 shipped, with an additional $30 mail-in-rebate. I have a friend interested in my current one if I upgrade, so in the end a <~$10 upgrade with little/no hassle. It's on the Recommended PSU's list, cheap upgrade, and allows me to go crossfire soon. Best option, or is there a better alternative?
