[QUOTE="pr0ing, post: 1864714, member: 6401"] You'll need something like this to calculate the actual power usage. Multiply the displayed wattage by the PSU's power factor to get the actual system power usage. [url]http://www.amazon.com/P3-International-P4400-Electricity-Monitor/dp/B00009MDBU[/url] Considering your peripherals, I'd advise you to upgrade the PSU. If budget is not a constraint then get a single GPU setup and sell your current GPU. Do not consider a crossfire setup for the geeky/eye-candy aspect as any problems you encounter will make you hate your decision. Having 1 card with a recent warranty is better than 2 older cards with less warranty, two cards means double the point of failure. If budget is a constraint then get a second 6850 and also keep in mind that you'll probably have to upgrade it much sooner than a GTX760. [/QUOTE]
