...no?
i literally ran 2x 3060ti and a ryzen 5 3600 full tilt on a CX550M... albeit i undervolted them a few (120w per GPU from ~180W stock)
i would say don't worry about it until it's actually an issue
By issue, i mean tripping the PSU's OPP
while it is not a thermally ideal case, it's nothing to worry about until it's actually an issue
I wouldn't suggest OP to go for it and spend money unless it's an actual issue rather than based on speculations
as for OP's questions:
i recommend looking into pugetsystem's benchmarks for the specific workstation applications you use for further analysis as workstation tasks are quite special
at times, you might be better served with a quadro due to driver support etc
for 1440p 144hz gaming
10:25 (timestamped)
3070ti seems to better fit 1440p 144fps, since it still falls short of it averagely
but do note that it has 4GB less VRAM, which may be beneficial to have for your workstation workloads
Thanks for the response, ill check it out ^^ and yea I will see wether the psu/case are problematic or not before replacing

Recommended yes, not necessarily needed. RM550X is quality unit and most likely handles spikes up to 650W with no issues. 3070ti with 300W:s is getting close to pushing the limits but I still would test under-volting before spending money on a new psu.
I already undervolted my cpu, not sure what the difference in W is but solved my thermal problems going from 90 to 76 C without performance loss ^^ My 2060 definatly uses more W then recommended by nvidia though. Around 180 peaks. I should probably check the total powerconsumption somehow.

That 3060 Ti is the best of the three for its model; It has the best cooling solution & the most OC potential. VRAM shouldn't be a major issue if you're aiming for 144Hz gaming, as you'd have to lower settings on several games even with the 3070 Ti to achieve that consistently, which would automatically reduce the volume required.
I'd also strongly advise looking for a higher wattage PSU and a different case. 550W just won't hold up with a 5800X and a 3060 Ti, and both are going to suffer a lot thermally with a coffin like the NZXT H500. My personal favorite is the Lian Li Lancool II Mesh Performance, but I'm not sure I can recommend it when its improvement over the H500 would likely send you into cardiac arrest.
Thanks for the awnser, yea I've fiddled a bit with the airflow/fan speed/voltage way back when my gpu went up to 83 C and the cpu sat at 90 C. They now cap at about 68 C for the gpu and 75 for the cpu. The case isn't great :P Though I think the psu with the 3060ti should be fine, according to a psu calculator but will check out what the 5800x is using atm.

Budget (including currency): €1000
Country: Netherlands
Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Games (Various games, like the new Battlefield/CoD/Dying Light), 3D design & Rendering with AutoDesk software (Revit/3DS Max) and Adobe (Premiere/After Effects) for video editing, graphics/motion design & Photoshop.
Other details: Currently I am using the MSI GeForce RTX 2060 Ventus 6G OC with the Ryzen 7 5800X CPU, Gigabyte Aorus X570 ELITE MOBO, 32GB Corsair Vengeance LPX RAM, Corsair RM550x PSU and a NZXT H500 case.
I'm playing on a 2560x1440p 144 Hz monitor (LG UltraGear 27GL850) and would like to upgrade my GPU. I'm not quite satisfied with the performance I get on 1440p, though I am not sure which GPU would be the best upgrade for me. I've looked at a few cards and can't really figure out what makes which card better/what specs to look at. For the 3060's below, there's more VRAM but less cores or the other way around. Then the 3070 would, probably be better then both 3060's (because more cores?) but would the extra investment be worth it, or would the performance gain with either of the 3060's be more then enough. The 3070 is about €350 more then the 3060's at the moment.
- MSI GeForce RTX 3060 GAMING X 12G
- MSI GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Gaming Z TRIO 8G
- MSI GeForce RTX 3070 Ti VENTUS 3X 8G OC
Hope someone can help me out ^^

and you'll get a better quality psu in general too
rifle bearing will improve the fan a lot
Will go for that one then, quite high rated for a decent price.

An i5 9600k overclocked to 5GHz is 180W in a synthetic stress test.
An RTX 2060 is about 160W stock, or about 190-200W overclocked.
Motherboard, RAM, fans, LEDs, SSDs give another 50W or so.
So peak load with everything overclocked running synthetic tests designed to stress test CPU/GPU you're looking at up to 450W max. More realistic real world gaming load would probably be closer to 350W. Less if you're not going hard on the overclocks.
Outervision lies. That forum post is 5 years old (updated in 2016 though) and talks about systems with FX series CPUs. It's outdated.
If it would put your mind at ease, then there are some 500/550W PSUs in the few I listed earlier, including the Masterwatt 550, Corsair CX550, and Pure Power 500W. All around the same price as your current unit.If the sound is coming from the PSU then it is likely a bad fan bearing, which means there's a higher chance that the fan will die soon and since that particular PSU does not have fan failure protection or OTP (Over Temperature Protection) when the fan dies the unit will likely overheat and fail, potentially catastrophically.
Since you just bought it are you able to return it to the store you bought it from for a refund? Even if you just get store credit instead of a cash refund and use the credit to buy a different PSU like the ones I listed above which are similarly priced.Thank you, stopped the fan at start up and there was no sound. Definatly the fan, if fan bearing is indeed that bad as you described i'll definatly return it. Maybe look at 400/500 ones aswell then.

And you can see from Anandtech's review that the system will use less than 300W under a gaming load.
That is wall power, so the DC side power consumption will be ~10% lower. You are not going to add 100W to a 160W card by overclocking on air.
Well regardless of how much watt I need, it's more about the one I currently have and wether I should keep it/ get a new one/ get another one. Just get another one is not really an option if it's not broken, if it is broken it would be fixed by getting a new one. If it's the PSU, and it's nothing out of the ordinary for this specific one then i'm not gonna bother sending it back for a bit of sound.

How would a 400W PSU not be enough to power a 300W PC? 400W is more than 300W, not less
https://outervision.com/b/wcI5NW & this post on the forums show 450+ with 550 W requirement if you OC.

^ some better units around the same price. What system do you have? Specs?
Is that grinding noise coming from the PSU? Try unplugging the HDD to see if the noise is coming from that instead.
400/500 W isn't enough, 500 is atleast cutting it close. Currently running GTX 2060/ i5-9600k/ 32gb ddr 3000 mhz ram/ samsung 970 & 860 ssd/ msi z 390 mobo.
It does sound very simular to an HDD, problem is I dont have an HDD so theres litteraly no way its coming from that XD I did unplug the gpu, and very sure it's coming from the PSU.

Return it to the store you bought it from, get a refund, and buy something else.
How much did you spend on the PSU (so I know how much money you have to spend on something else)? What store did you buy from?61 euro
https://www.megekko.nl/product/4186/968690/PC-Voedingen-PSU-/Gigabyte-GP-B700H-700W-PSU-PC-voeding
Might be the PSU, not sure.

Probably a bad fan. If you just bought it then swap it at the store you bought it from, or RMA it to the manufacturer.
What unit is it?Yea got it last friday, its a Gigabyte GP-B700H 700W PSU

Hey everyone, I recently build a new system and the one thing that has been annoying me is the sound the PSU makes, not the sound itself but not knowing wether or not it's a sound that's completely normal or something I should go back to the store with. The sound is always going, and definatly coming from the PSU as the sound will be there without having the GPU connected, regardless of the PC performance the sound is the same, it's coming from the PSU/GPU area hence I also checked without the GPU plugged in. PC is working fine, I just don't know the sound and if it's something that shouldn't be there it's better to return it.
I recorded the sound with the fans making the most noice, if you listen closely you can hear the PSU sound i'm referring to.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7YB0003VXs&feature=youtu.be
I'd describe it as slurpy/ grindy? Not sure.
Gigabyte GP-B700H 700W PSU is what I'm using.
Thanks!

OK,
Have you configured your RAM using XMP?
If you have then download and run Memtest 86 from a USB stick.
It's going to take a few hours to complete with 32GB.Ye started that a bit ago

As it's a new install I would restart from scratch again.
Norton is know to take over your machine and can cause so many problems. That's why heavy users, or gamers don't use it.
So start again with no Norton.
Ill do that haha

Hey all
Yesterday I built my new PC, and finalized everything today.
- msi geforce rtx 2060 ventus
- intel i5 9600k
- msi z 390 pro
- 32 gb ddr4 3 ghz ram (corsair)
- gigabyte 700W psu
- samsung 970 m2 ssd
Booted from premade usb with the most recent bios version, internet driver and windows creation tool files.
Flashed bios, installed windows, installes internet driver and thEn other drivers. Afterwards I did all the windows updates, installed some other programs (norton, i know/discord/uplay/razer/logitech software) and played some games.
After about 12 hours I got a blue screen, errorcode (symefasi64.sys) according to google caused by norton (yep) so i deleted norton restarted the pc and done i thought.
Back into the game and another blue screen this time:(SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED) (SYMEFASI64.SYS)
Related to drivers from what i could find but all drivers were up to date. I check the gamefiles, all good, start the game and this time i cant even get into the game. The game crashes followed by bsud, new error (memory-management) so at this point i dont know anymore.
Things that i think can be related:
- psu is making a weird noise, maybe its not working propperly causing differemt errors. Will swap the psu to see if it helps as the sound is anoyying.
- deleting norton corrupted something and caused a domino effect?
After hours of trial and error i encountered more and more problems. Couldnt start the game at all, couldnt update or reinstall nvidia drivers.
Will reinstall windows, change the psu but not sure what else i can do and if that will even help.
U guys have any ideas? The psu makes a sound like its slurping a drink, maybe a bit like an old hdd writing the disk.

GPU Upgrade
in New Builds and Planning
Posted
Did some testing, and for the CPU I peaked on 80 degrees / 112 W. The GPU peaked at 71 degrees (85 at 'Hot Spot) with 181 W. Thermal wise, I think it would be fine thermal wise, and PSU depends on wether or not the 3060 ti goes way over the power usage that are listed in the specifications. I might look into a new case, I wouldnt mind a better one tbh. It has been anoyying me for a bit, that it gets quite hot very easily resulting in undervolting my CPU, adjusting my fan speed all around to make sure it actually doesn't get dangerous. It's quite loud haha
