GTX660 SLI PSU

[FragYaL8R]

i picked up another gtx 660 off of a friend for a decent price so now im going to be doing SLI, so i need a reliable power supply that can handle sli, 4.5ghz 3570k, 16gb ram and a couple hdd/ssd. i have a low end 500w coolermaster psu right now and i know that isnt enough.

Budget?

[DoubleY]

650watt should be fine. 

 

I would suggest an EVGA 650watt

50-75$ budget.

Your 660's have 1x 6pin connector each don't they? I believe 660's have a 140W TDP.

 

From looking at PCPartPicker, I would suggest the Corsair CX500M, CS550M, Seasonic M12ii Bronze 520W, or the Rosewill Hive-550.

CX500M doesn't have the necessary connectors.

CX500M doesn't have the necessary connectors.

http://www.eteknix.com/corsair-cx500m-semi-modular-power-supply/3/ Newegg confirms 2x 6+2pin as well.

Cable 1 = 2 PCIe 6+2 pin connectors

I believe it does. As long as the 660's have 1 6pin it should be fine. Little on the small/cheap end.

I'd suggest a Corsair CX 600M (or similar)

These two connectors are on one cable. The PSU is too weak anyway,

High quality 550w is fine, 650w if you want high OC, 750 if you want to over volt.
