Hey guys, I was just wondering if this power supply (TX 750M) Will be enough for 1 R9 290X? Thanks!
Also will the Card bottleneck (I know its a hard question as there is so many variables but I was just wondering if you could estimate)
750W is more than enough, even if you overclock the shit out of both CPU and GPU.
If you want to know if your CPU bottlenecks our GPU, run Cinebench R15 OpenGL test or Unigine at stock speed. Note your results and then start overclocking your CPU in small steps. Run the benchmarks at each step and check how well your results scale. Another indicator is when you GPU usage varies a lot during gaming. If your graph looks a lot like someones heartbeat instead of being somewhat stable, it might be the CPU slowing down the GPU.
But with the 8350 this shouldn't be your concern.
Cheers man
NO YOU NEEEEEED 1.21 JIGAWATTS OF POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
