I would go with the molex to 8 pin as a temp thing, i would say 460w is enough to run the card... maybe look at a little upgrade down the line to give yourself more headroom tho.

Well I'm not terribly impressed by the 7870, mainly cos it don't ****ing work.

Plan B?!

I'm sitting on a 770 I don't use and didn't sell because the only place I trusted offered me £80.

How would you go about buying it off me if you wanted to?

How much do you want for it and how old is it?

Work...productive stuff.


jk, porn and lomcn

Sounds familiar.

But until you experience GTX Titan Porn, you're at a lower level than I.

a GTX660 would do the trick tbh, doubt you'd ever need to upgrade.

£100 would be ok I suppose.

got it beginning of June As my 7850 died. Bought a 970 mid October and it's not been used since.

Ive never sold anything this way before though.

We could use a middle man I suppose, would have to be someone we both trust though.

Sorry the card i suggested didnt work out, its a great wee card for the price. I would snap that 770 up tho, a lot better and the same price. Thats why i said look at second hand cards =).
