The GeForce GTX 780 will have a maximum power design of 250 Watts, but they are made to overclock as well so EVGA is extending the power limitation a little bit. You will also see two 150W 8-pin PEG connectors. Another 75 to 150 Watts is delivered though the PCI slot and thus motherboard. This should be plenty for a decent overclocking session. EVGA recommends a 600 watt (or greater) PSU with 42 amps on the +12v rail. If we rotate the card and look at the backside we can see two SLI connectors, three cards in SLI GPU mode are supported.
The Classy is 29 cm in length by the way. Included in the bundle is a small manual, power connector converters, and a driver CD oh and one fine graphics card. Also included is a posted and case-badge.
Optional as purchase is an EVBOT which you can connect directly to the graphics cards to regulate voltages. As our overclocking segment of the article will show, it is not exactly money well spent.
It is an interesting feature, though you then have a wire leading out the graphics card and you'd need to store the EVBOT somewhere. So whilst I appreciate the device, this is not exactly everybody's cup of tea.
