Hi everyone!

Please help me with advise. Will it be enough to put 1000W PSU ( Chieftec APS-1000CB ) on 5*RX 470 4B with AMD FX-4330 CPU + 1 SSD ?

People say that this GPUs can draw up to 200W on some peak consumption. If it is so , then PSU is not enough for that RIG ?

Maximum for these cards 150-160 watts in dual mode ETH+SIA

Yeah, I also heard from one person, but I have yet to see a RX 470 which uses 200W (their TDP is only 120W). This is only true for RX 480 which can really pull that much under certain conditions. BTW: ETH+SIA with OC is an excellent load test :-)

It's also very easy to undervolt 470/480 to draw at or under 100w even at near-peak stock mining speeds.
