How to reanimate GPU?

perryjay:
Has anyone told Mike we need a new power supply too so he can keep his fund drive going a bit longer?

SciManStev:
For the extreme stress we all put on our systems, regular off the shelf components just don't do well. When I built my rig, headroom was the key. I ended up with a BFG 1250 watt PSU with 3 28 amp rails. I have not regretted that for a microsecond. Even with everything heavilly over volted and over clocked, I have plent of headroom available. I even went the extra distance and wired up a 30 amp twist lock circuit directly from my mains. As for RAC, I got about 65.000 with just two GPU's. I already sent Mike another donation to help with a PSU. I really hope we can come up with enough.

I have 450W PSU

you'll definitely want at least a 700W PSU now.
