RichardH754 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Would the HX1050 run 3 GTX480s at stock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanutz94 Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Each card will use up to 260watts at full bore. So i think you would have enough power depending on what else you have in your system. (fans, lights, watercooling, DVD drives, CPU, and so on...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyvee Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Going by your pc specs in your sig i'd say your'll be pushing it to the limits . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardH754 Posted March 2, 2012 Author Share Posted March 2, 2012 As long as I dont OC them it should have enough power then. I only have 1 DVD drive and HAF X fans with 2 fans on my H50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOODedAssault Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Id go with an AX1200. I have a 1050hx I was running 470 tri sli on. Itll handle it, I mean its corsair lol. But mine PUMPED out the heat. But in a haf if u put the fan facing up it will run much cooler. Experienced this myself in a haf. Mine handled tons of benchmarks at 1.05v 750/1900 which uses about the same power as a 480s. Def put the fan up tho. Go ax1200 if u can afford it. If you already have hx1050 just do it ;):. Edit: http://www.guru3d.com/article/geforce-gtx-480-3way-sli-review/25 There using watercooling and stuff, but ur using a bunch of hdd. Ur pushing it, this is peak power, id stick with 2 ull have higher minimums then 3 in most games and ur psu wont be crying for mercy. My fps were like 10 higher in bf3 with 2 470s vs 3.
