Topic: 650W Enough for 2x 1080 Ti ?? - page 2. (Read 383 times)
forget any chinese psu, they are crap, local retailer has one chinese psu 1850 watts and selling for $460, they are blood crazy asking that, i would not pay a single dollar for it.
I have 650W and 700W supplies who stop working when mining with 2 1080ti's on 100% power limit without other systems (no hdd/cpu/mobo).
Get 750W or more, gold or better.

What kind of 650W and 700W power supply was it?
I know what all of you are saying. I wouldn't be mining at 100% power limit. More like 75%, ~185W per card.
185W
185W
100W+
---------
470W
But anyways, I still haven't bought a power supply. Kinda wishing I had last week when they were on sale. I'm using an EVGA 850 B2 right now. But I'm expecting to get some more cards.
There are shitpsu like aerocool which can't handle even 2 1070. While declaring 700w
It's more than enough, only if you limit power to 70% or lower.
SSD/cpu/mobo/ram,ram, is not more than 40W.

It's more than enough, make sure you put the power limit to 70%.

as a recommendation, there should always be 200 Watts or so left when summing up all the power needs.

I don't think that's enough.
Motherboard and CPU are going to need some ca 100 Watts too.
And there should always be a little headroom left, a PSU isn't supposed to run at 100% capacity all the time.

Is the SeaSonic PRIME Platinum 650W enough for 2x 1080 Ti mining rig?
*Edit: it would have lower efficiency being past 50% load, so it would be cheaper to get a 850W gold PSU right?
