Any of you know how many Watts a USB 2.0 draws? Or USB 3.0?
I'm seeing .5 Watts for USB 2.0---and conflicting info for 3.0
Thanks.

I mean a pair of 6770s or 550tis should be fine, but considering this is a quality psu I would say it's pretty safe to run 560's unless you're doing massive ocing.

True. Then again, gpu's are becoming more and more power efficient by the year.
This power supply is perfect for single card configured rigs, and more than enough for most.
