Don't do it! Once you fall in just one more turn becomes six hours.

What kind of CPU will you be paring with it. To be on the safe side I'd tally up 600W for the GPU's alone. Those cards can do anywhere between 150W-200W depending on the use.

What? Did you have it hooked up to a power strip? I would flip if that happened to me

yeah, it also has an AC adapter, so I don't think it was because of a 'power surge' or whatever. it was probably doing something when it lost power, and something got fuct up. I lost power and immediately got it back. but the hdd started making a loud scratching sound (not the normal 'grinding' sound)

not a big deal though. I only lost a bunch of movies I never watch and some backups

@daze23 no NDA, but how is elder scrolls online?

What are you putting together with those strong cards and old CPU? If you want low power (and performance to boot) roll with Intel.

Yeah I'd still go with Intel unless you're strictly money conscious. A new Pentium will perform much better while drawing about 10w more and costing about the same (provided there's a microcenter near you).
