Topic: 7950 vapor-x in pci X1 slot (Read 1209 times)
You'll have no trouble with power. I have a pair of Sapphire 7950's running now, I use CGM, undervolt, slight OC. Fans at 70% gpu runs 70C and vrm's about 8C higher. The Vaper-X cooling seems to be good for 3-5C vs other 7950's I have used. I have a Thermaltake 850 psu, running a OC'd 8350 under water.
You're fine running 800 watts for 2 7950s and your setup as long as you're not running in a very hot environment (90+ F).
I was able to run 2 7950s when BTC mining in an undervolted state on a I5-2500k with an Antec Earthwatts 500

16x, 1x, doesnt matter as far as mining speed or power goes.
I know.But will I get full hashing power while running a x16 card in x1 slot?
Are you sure about that?
Yes.

My motherboard has 1 PCI Express x16 slot and 1 PCI Express x1 slot.I will put 1 card in X16 slot and thinking of putting the second one in X1 slot through a pci riser extension cable.
I am worried if I put it in X1 slot will I get full hashing power of the card?Need help from people who tried it and knows about this properly.
