I have an RX 480 8GB Nitro in my machine at the moment and wanted to add an R9 390x 8GB to it. I have number dyslexia pretty bad so I keep muddling up numbers and it's difficult to get them correct so hopefully someone can help.
I have an 850w PSU powering an Am1m mobo and Sempron 2600+ with 4GB ram, a USB wifi device and a USB flash drive, 3 140mm fans and mouse and keyboard. I've calculated an approximate load of 583w but a second opinion would be good.
Also in terms of the powering of the riser, I've 1 spare 6+2 pin and one 4+4 pin connectors left. I need to connect the 6 pin direct to the riser and the other to the GPU, I assume this is correct? I also don't have the cable length to take it outside the case so I am thinking. Could I use a PCIe splitter to plug into the GPU and riser and then the other single end into the 4+2 coming from the PSU?
