    screenshots have to be a certain type, like, jpg, png, etc. And they have to be a certain size.

    2x8 splitter in but it still crashes. Pretty sure I'm overdwrawing the power supply. Runs at about 700 max on both cards plus all peripherals and the current PSU I think is 750, so yeah. It's pushing it. Oooh, 675 on the PSU but all the rails for it look good.

    +5 is 30
    3.3 is 24
    +12 is 52
    -12 is 0.5
    and the 5v is 2.5a

    Yeah, I'm killing it.

    Yeah, 650 ain't good with two video cards and or with only one, when you count how many other things are plugged into the computer, i.e., USB devices, like printers, scanners, etc, speakers. plus any other equipment, DVD drives. Will pull power from that power supply. I've seen a Dell that wouldn't recognize a DVD drive because the PSU wasn't strong enough.
