This PSU got 1K and 1.1K max load so this PSU will be ok with your system.
If you think about further upgrading in your system or upgrading your GPU and / or voltage then you can go for 1.6K if not this is ok with your recent system.

Hi,

my old PSU died these days and i need a new one

i found this - price is good and in stock

http://www.lc-power.de/index.php?id=251&L=1

i have 3 7950s running

1x Gigabyte 7950 Rev2
2x HIS iceQ 7950 Turbo

i undervolted the cards to this:

Gigabyte 7950  0.962V
 HIS 7950 laufen auf 1.050V

Kill-a-watt displays for 1 GPU in my Test-Computer (i think the mining-rig will have a little bit less idlepower due a smaler CPU and only 1 HDD)

GB: Idle ~80W / mining ~350W --> ~270W
HIS: Idle ~45W / mining ~250W --> ~ 205W

so imho the PSU should be ok .. but is there a problem with the "rails" ? it has 6 PCIs connectors ... can this be a problem when i (accidentally) cross the "rails" with a card??!

thanks in advance
