Aurora-R5, SLI Nvidia GTX 1080, 850w PSU enough?
Hi guys!
The new Aurora-R5 looks great so I'm considering buying one but I have a question about the SLI 1080GTX setup. I'd like to buy the 5k monitor from Dell (UP2715K) as well. So I'd better feed that beast with a SLI 1080GTX setup! BUT, I saw that the Aurora-R5 only comes with an 850w PSU (power supplu unit). Is this enough? On the Area 51-R2 page there is mentioned that it is provided with a 1500w PSU to make sure the SLI Nvidia GTX 1080 setup has enough power. So how can the Aurora-R5 work properly with only 850w?
Useful info for the configuration I'd like to buy:
i7 6700K overclocked
32 GB RAM
500SSD + 2TB
Blu-Ray read/write
SLI 1080GTX
A big thanks!

When you choose one of the K processors (i7-6700K, i5-6600K), you are required to choose the 850w multi-GPU approved power supply with the High Peformance Liquid Cooling which can run any of the following OEM video cards in a dual setup.
RTYN6 Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Founders Edition, Pascal, 8GB, DVI-D/DP1.4/DP1.4/DP1.4/HDMI 2.0B, Dual/Single
6F651 Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 Founders Edition, Pascal, 8GB, DVI-D/DP1.4/DP1.4/DP1.4/HDMI 2.0B, Dual/Single
5NN03 Nvidia GeForce GTX 980 Ti, D17U-40, 6GB GDDR5, DVI-I/DP/DP/DP/HDMI, Dual/Single
YJ30F Nvidia GeForce GTX 980, 4GB GDDR5, DVI-I/DP/DP/DP/HDMI
RW8C2 Nvidia GeForce GTX 970, 4GB GDDR5, DVI-I/DP/DP/DP/HDMI, Dual/Single
H4P1K Nvidia GeForce GTX 960, 2GB GDDR5, DVI-I/DP/DP/DP/HDMI, Dual/Single
C58PP Nvidia GeForce GTX 950, 2GB GDDR5, DVI-I/DP/DP/DP/HDMI, Dual/Single
YX6VC AMD R9 370, RD14D-P1-70, 4GB GDDR5, DVI-I/DVI-D/DP/HDMI, Dual/Single
If a user chooses the non-K processors (i7-6700, i5-6400, i3-6100), they can still choose the 850w multi-GPU approved power supply and run a dual video card setup.
