The rest of my system is xfx 750w pro psu, 8GB (2x4GB) Ram, 2 HDD and 2 optical drives. When it boots in system, sometimes it doesn't recognize the card, it says Microsoft basic display adapter, in device manager. The A0 code exists even when the windows are fully booted.

Question about maximus v formula

Nope, it didn't move.. My thought is that the connection between these two chips was broken, so they put this metal thing there to re-establish it. Anyway I've returned it to the shop just to be sure, that I won't have any problems in the future. I hope now that they will accept the return and...

Unfortunately, can't buy from newegg. I am from Greece, so they don't do over atlantic shipments. I want a stronger PSU in case that I want to add another GPU in the future.

I was thinking of something like to keep the psu I've got and invest my money on two 7950's. Is it good, or am I going to do something stupid? The rest of the system will be Asrock extreme 4, 3570K, 8GB RAM. Will the 750Watt Psu that lehtv suggested to hold these two cards?
