CPU Config - Need Advice

^^

Cooler Master GX 750 W looks like a good option for users looking for a mainstream 750 W power supply, however it has a major flaw that prevents us from recommending it: noise level at +3.3 V and +5VSB outputs were above the maximum allowed when we pulled 600 W and above from this unit. High noise levels overload and can even damage components on your computer.

Cooler Master GX 750 W Power Supply Review | Hardware Secrets

The Good:
appearance
enough cabling to handle anything a 750W unit can power
somewhat shallow depth

The Bad:
cannot handle heat at 750 watts
ripple issues on the 3.3V rail
questionable capacitor quality

The Mediocre:
voltage regulation

Coolermaster GX-750 750W Review

and our baba had to rma his mobo twice. and finally a psu change.

^^ What about their real power and silent pro series? Do they have similar issues?

Btw for a 750w psu, no one will turn away from corsair, seasonic, antec, tagan etc. for cm gx 750. But they can handle midrange gpu's without breaking any sweat. ISN'T IT? How about their gx 550?

 

[Jaskanwar Singh]

ya their silent pros and real power are very good.

baba's gx550 went bust without a gpu

and everyone going for mig range like 6950 or 560ti have budget for a good psu. (exceptions are always their)

 

[vickybat]

^^agreed. So a big NO to GX series right?

 

[Jaskanwar Singh]

ya ya. anyways vicky any info on seasonic x ?

 

[vickybat]

^^ Nope no info yet. They are 80+ gold rated and looks desirable.

Check this for a complete list of psu's. Nothing more is required apart from them imo.

 

[Jaskanwar Singh]

thanks.

Seasonic X eries is very good. X650W Gold can handle GTX580 SLI easily.

They cost a lot though (10k+).
