I am planning on running three GTX 680s in SLI mode. Will my 860w Corsair PSU be sufficient to power my GPUs safely? I have read several conflicting accounts on this and would like a clear answer.

Updated to reflect my system specs:

Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor

Corsair H75 54.0 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler

Asus MAXIMUS VII HERO ATX LGA1150 Motherboard

2x Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-2400 Memory

Samsung 840 Pro Series 256GB 2.5" Solid State Drive

3x Seagate 2TB Desktop Gaming SSHD SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache 3.5-Inch Internal Bare Drive (ST2000DX001)

2x MSI GeForce GTX 680 2GB Video Card (2-Way SLI)

Inwin D-FRAME Red ATX Desktop Case

Corsair 860W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply

  • I did but, interestingly, partspicker only allowed me two GTX 680s. Could my motherboard be a limiting factor? Asus claims that it can support 3 or 4 way SLI.
