Looking at building a new system for mid-level gaming. The budget is tight but here is what I am looking at.
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Crucial 4GB (4 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600)
Intel Core i5-750 Lynnfield 2.66GHz LGA 1156 95W Quad-Core Processor Model
NZXT M59 - 001BK Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 Plus CPU Cooler
GIGABYTE GA-P55A-UD3 LGA 1156 Intel P55 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
2 SAMSUNG CD/DVD Burner Black SATA Model SH-S223C
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 ST31000528AS 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive
Question I have is, will the Earthwatt 650 support this setup, could I instead run a pair of 5770 in Crossfire? I already own the 650W PSU, figure it saves me a bit of money if I can reuse it.
