Re: PC Buying Guide - July 2011

but where can I really get it for 2k ?
gtx285 needs 180W max, if system takes 200w then this will work.

Re: PC Buying Guide - July 2011

For FSP Saga II 500W not more than 6850 is recommended... Compare the power consumption of GTX285 n 6850
A good 600W PSU is needed to power a GTX285..

Re: PC Buying Guide - July 2011

isn't that the total power consumption of the system ? its at 360 ? for such a high end rig ?

Re: PC Buying Guide - July 2011

^^ Wattage over the 12v rails of a psu is considered over other rails. So 12v rail of saga 500 gives 29amp of current.

That equates to 12 X 29 = 348w

Considering the system requirements of GTX 285 i.e 360 watts peak power draw, saga 500 is insufficient for it.

I doubt the availability of saga in bangalore & moreover its insufficient to handle it.

IMO get Corsair VX450[3.2k] or 550 at 3.7k or Corsair GS600 at ~ 4k.

Re: PC Buying Guide - July 2011

IMO, VX550 is a good choice for GTX285..

Is that knife an accessory or a safety feature of the PC (against real life threats )



On a serious note, it looks good but that is just adding 2 more monitors. So implementation should be easy peasy.

Never have an idea that monitors can be used as speaker stands also.

Re: PC Buying Guide - July 2011

Not bad, but a HX1050 will do fine on that setup.

Add a corsair H100 with cooler master Xtraflow PWM red LED fans x4 (not the same as the sickleflows)
