ihabkal Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 I am using it with 550W but with a quaddro fx 1500, could be with a more power hungry graphics card you might need more power. the cpu itself uses 130 Watts I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJLynn Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 The CPU power requirements are in the same ballpark as the other i7's and the Core 2 Quads. The 1000W power supply is for when you want to use multiple high end video cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJLynn Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 With that setup, I'd get a good 550 or 650 watt PSU. I've had good luck with Antec products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slinger Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 I personally prefer Corsair power supplies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
