Sli Question

[Deleted]

I am thinking of getting another 560ti card to sli, my question is if my Antec Earthwatts 650W PSU will be able to handle 2 cards ?

It looks like the 650w version of the earthwatts only has 2 X 6+2 PCI-E power connectors. So thats only room enough for one 560ti. You would need to bump up to the 750w version to get 4 X 6+2 PCI-E connectors for the 560Ti's in SLI.

Molex to PCI-E?

You're lacking the 2 x 6 (or 2 x 6+2) PCIe power connectors needed to power two cards. Dual 560 Ti's need four power connectors, and that PSU only has two. You could use molex -> PCIe adapters to make it work.

I think you'd be fine.

Think you'd be alright if you got some molex>pci-e things, depends more on the quality of the psu, of which I must admit I know nothing when it comes to Antec.

Most video cards come with Molex to PCIe Power connectiors if I recall. They should come with the next 560 you buy.
