Help buying 6670

How about VS550. It is around 2.9k so i guess i can take that if it is worth the price difference.

GS>CX>VS
If you want to go higher, then GS500,
But no need, CX430V2 is a excellent psu, suits your needs well.

 

[furious_gamer]

^^ You sure it can handle 5850?

 

[Myth]

5850 has a peak power consumption of around 300(furmark) while the processor can do 180(?)
I doubt you will be pushing either of those that high.
430 is good, 500w is safer.

@Myth
Any 500W PSU at the range (2.5 - 3k)?

Cooler Master Thunder 500W Power Supply (RS-500-ACAB-M3)

 

[Neo]

Stay away from CM.
FSP Saga II 500W is good but is hard to find these days ( not better than CX430V2)
Get Corsair CX500V2 @ 3.5k else

IMO, CX430V2 is more than enough.

^^ neo, i dont want to end up frying my PC. In TE, a guy is selling his "Tagan max power 700W" for 2.5k. How is it? Since it fits exactly in my budget can i buy this?

Avoid Cooler Master. Why ?
Local prices will be lower for CORSAIR SMPS 500CXV2UK

[furious_gamer]

^^ No. Its out of warranty.

Stay away IMO.
Get cx500V2 from the link myth posted

 

[Thetrueblueviking]

Add 400 bucks more and get the CX500V2. Its your best bet.
Dont get that 2 year old Tagan PSU.

 

[furious_gamer]

Will buy CX500V2. Guess it will handle 5850.

 

[Thetrueblueviking]

Yes it will.

 

[furious_gamer]
