Guys

guys,
i bought a 1000 watt evga supernova and i was running two r9 390s on it. within 2 weeks the power supply just died . i told evga what happened and now they are rma'ing it and i am getting a new one for free. but i am scared to try it again i feel like its just gonna break again. what should i do ? i feel like it broke because the outlet in my house is not giving enough power. but i cannot confirm .

Retard.

>AMD
your fault.

what is 1000 watts not enough ?
im not gonna high an electrician just so i can run 2 gpus.

The problem is you bought a shitty housefire causing power eating AMD card, not just 1 but 2 of them, and now you get to pay the price.

sell the 390s and get a 1080, single gpu is always the way to go

You don't own a multimeter to test the outlet?
There relatively cheap if you look around for one.

I bought a EVGA SuperNOVA 1600 G2 to run two 290x TRI-X as the 1KW Silverstone I had wasn't enough to keep them stable.


Crossfire and SLI work like 75% of the time now for 50%+ gains.

AMD has shitty drivers, but fair hardware/performance for the price.

Nvidia are literal cancerous jews. But has great hardware/performance, though relatively high prices and they tend to play dirtier than AMD. (Jewworks, closed source shenanigans, bribing developers ect.)

SLI/CF is garbage 100% of the time because of the microstutter.

Dunno man, I've not had microstutter since 4870 and 660 range. Not with 290x, 660, 5970 (2x gpu), or 970 GPU setse.
