though i'm myself using SAGA+6850.....but now one of my friend is planning to buy the same GPU.......so he want to go with Seasonic s12II 430W.....but he has a doubt that will the 430W PSU be better than the 500W saga????....and yeah he is ready to spend around 2.6k......so plzz don't reply that SAGA is cheap n all....he just needs to buy a better one out of these two.....:)

The seasonic one will definitely be better but availability might be an issue. Get corsair CX430 V2 for 2.6-2.8k

if you get seasonic then buy it or go with corsair CX430V2 which costs around 2.3k.or even FSP saga that one is also good.

Fsp Saga 500+HD 6850 will be best option.If saga500 not available then Corsair Cx430V2@2.5K.

Nope.Its not recommended.Corsair GS600 will be best for HD6870.

yup no overclocking with that psu.Will run fine without OC.
The person has changed his PSU before unlocking the shaders.I think to a seasonic 520W

Oh really? 6870 is a power efficient card, the Seasonic will handle it no problem. Ofc overclocking is a completely different story.

Oh how can you so sure without any source???Check this AMD recommending min 500watt SMPS.And don't say you know better than AMD's experts :p
