0-20k Which power supply for 2x5850 + 1050 ti?

[draglord]

Hi


I want to know which power supply should i get for 2x5850 + 1050 ti? I have 5850 with me, not sure about 1050, might but something else

Would a bronze standard 750 w psu be good? Or a gold standard is recommended?

Thanks

go 850 or 1000w, old amd cards x2 might not be the most power efficient. 750w may work but tight headroom. 750w 12v rail might get overloaded a bit. check for psu teir list for bronze or gold on linus tech tips forum.

Gold and bronze rating is more related to efficiency rather than requirement. Based on calculation, 750 Watts wil be enough. Go for gold rating if you want lesser heat from PSU.

you may want to do a 12v rail calculation on full load. 750w might work but seems close.

Alright i think I'm gonna go with a 850w psu. Maybe gold standard.

just calculate 12v rail amps required,then decide 850 or 1000w.

Ok so 2*5850 + 1050 ti turned into 4*3060ti + 1060 6gb + 2*5850.

I ordered 2x rm850. Thanks everyone
