it's the amperage on the 12v rails and their stability.
I only recently learned this, and i always forget it at first... but its so true
it's the amperage on the 12v rails and their stability.
7200.10 means 10th version of 7200 rpm harddrive
yeah it's just a version code.
Well they tend to be faster with each revision
well that is nice to hear. Makes me feel a bit better.
btw, what do u think of this PSU that im getting?
Newegg.com - PC Power & Cooling Silencer 750 Quad (Crossfire Edition) EPS12V 750W Power Supply 100 - 240 V UL, CE, CB, RoHS - Retail
my plan was to get 1 HD 3870 x2 n another later for Crossfire. The 8pin is optional in case i ever get a graphics card that supports 8pin.
what vernong said. No need for the 750w. Grab the 610 or the Corsair Hx520w
well when is wattage important? Because at like loading times the CPU n GPU will consume more watts plus adding to my Z-2200 logitech speakers when probably consume like 100w-200w.
BUT if u really consider me getting the that PSU, then so be it ill get it. I just want to be really prepared for the HD 3870 x2 when they come out is all.
Wattage is not important, almost never important. Also, your speakers consume power off the grid, not off the PSU. It is the amps on 12v rail that matters.
hmm ok, then how come some products like the HD 2900 XT recommend at least a 550w PSU?
in all my opinion, ill just go with the 620w n be on the safe side, but then again if what u guys say is true ill go with the 520w.
