Hi,
After reading the Power supply guide, I'm still not sure about what power supply to get.
It's clear to me that i should be aiming higher towards a 600W but still not exactly sure and am a bit scared to buy a PSU that doesn't meet the load.
Currently my setup would be:
Motherboard: Sabertooth X990 r2.0 - Bought
Ram: DDR3-1600 G.SKill 18GB (Ripjaws) - Bought
CPU: AMD FX-8350 - Bought
CPU Info:
I know I would've been better off with a Intel but for what it's worth the value I'm getting out of this CPU is well worth the save.
GPU: Nvidia Geforce 770 GTX - Not bought yet
GPU info:
I'm not planning on getting any higher, the price I'm paying for the GTX 770 is fair enough and I don't feel like I will need the power of a 780 or require to save a few 10ers for the 760
Hard Drive: Seagate 2 Terrabyte 7200RPM - Bought
Hard Drive Info:
Currently don't feel the need to save some extra seconds on load-times on windows or even gaming, The money value I would be getting out of it just doesn't suit me as much.
Optical: None.
USB and Other devices
Headset: USB + Optical
Astro Mixamp and Astro a40 headset
Mouse:
Mad Catz M.M.O 7 Gaming Mouse
Keyboard:
Roccat ISKU (Illuminated Gaming Keyboard)
Monitor:
LG 38 inch LED tv.
Fans:
x3 120mm Fans (LED)
x1 200mm Fan (LED)
I am currently not on a very tight budget but i can't push out over 100-200 euros out for a PSU, especially the reason why I'm running a AMD CPU.
The power consumption on AMD cards seems way too high and will only force me to dish out more for a PSU which isn't very convenient.
The best would be to get it on a reasonable level and I would definitly be willing to get a 80+ platinum Corsair with 760W if it is enough.
PSU Model: Corsair AX760
Now my question would be, with my current setup and the Geforce 770 GTX
Will I really need 760W or can I go lower?
Or can I even expect to require even more power on my PSU to power the machine?
Thank you for taking your time reading, hope that someone has the answer.
