My current PSU is the AeroCool "ZeroDBA" 620w
+12v1 = 20A
+12v2 = 17A

I'd ditch that and get a better one for sure! |

you probably only need less than 400-500W to power that system. much less 800W

Really? A 500W would feed my system? I have a C2Q Q6600 for a proc, a 500W will still work with a 275 co-op? |

By co-op, do you mean SLI? |

The co-op 275GTX is a 275GTX and a 250GTS hybrid card.... Either of those two PSU's suggested will easily run that card.

They are both on the same PCB the idea is that the 250 is used for physx processing, which is why it has batman all over it as the dark asylum game fully supports physx (a few others have but nothing special, just added effects). EVGA | Articles | EVGA GTX 275 Co-op PhysX |
