CF and SLi is really really not worth doing since major games don fully support SLi and CF... summo must spend on PSU... shakehead.gif

*

What is max draw watts of HD 3870 and HD 3850 ?
I went to http://www.extreme.outervision.com/PSUEngine but I can't find HD 3870 and HD 3850.
*
if based from this review the power consumption for hd3850 and whole rig 195w, and hd3870 should be lil bit higher

between 3850 256mb vs 3850 512mb,is there a huge def between this 2?
i confuse right now,either take 256mb version or 512..
*
it depend on ur display (resolution u use), if u use 1280x1024 it should be ok for almost all game.. unless u use for big display then 512mb is needed

All sifu here i got one question regarding the 8 pin ~

My new GC need 8 pin to support it~

but i have check my PSU it has 8 pin but manual write it is a 8pin Processor Power Connector..

I do check pic for GC 8 pin the pic show same as what i having nw~

My question is do i can use this 8pin Processor Power connector on my GC?

Do it is same?
*
no, u cant use it for ur vga, coz both are diff thing.. 8pin pcie connector... just use 6pin it will work... u use hd2900xt ar? if yes that card required 1 6pin and othe one 8 pin, u can use 6pin pcie conn for both power connector, but it won't allow u to oc the card
