PSU & GPU compatibility

I have a Xilence performance c 600w PSU. Is it compatible with the RX Vega 56 GPU or a 1070 Ti? Looking to upgrade my lovely GTX 1050 Ti

This PSU is pretty craptastc and only has one 6+2PCIe connector. Due to this only mini versions of the cards will work. For example Zotac GTX 1070 Ti Mini. BUT PLZ get a decent PSU first and then get a used Vega 64 -> nice price/perf annnnd your hose wont burn down lol

 

Oh and wellllllcome to the forums :)

Yeah it's compatible and should provide enough power, but it isn't a very good PSU. I would strongly recommend an upgrade, remember if the PSU fails it could take everything else with it.

performance c is the lowest xilence, and even Listan has to offer in their current lineup

 

with the vega 56 you risk transient issues and even out of spec voltage issues, i would highly recommend to upgrade it

Take a look at the tier lists he links! They are awesome and a nice orientation. Pic something with a decent ranking and good price in your region!

Guess something around 600W should be plenty, but what hardware are you running with those GPUs?

Allright say I bid the Xilence farewell, what PSU is better if we're talking around the $50-60 range? I know you're not supposed to cheap out on the power supply but I'm on a budget.

Btw here's rest of the specs:

- i5 7400 (I know I'll be a little CPU-bottlenecked but I can live with it for a while)

- MSI B250M PRO VD

-16 GB RAM

 

Edit: I'm looking at a corsair rm650x

Nice decision and well worth it. You will have a long usable time and a solid warranty.

The Corsair RMx series is really nice. You won't be disappointed. 

 

The only thing under $60 that I would throw at that setup would be the M12II 520 which is $39 after $20 rebate at newegg.  Those things are as tough as nails.   But if you can pull off the RMx, do so.

There's a guy selling an RMX650X (new) for $85. Sounds like an ok deal. Also have a potential buyer for the Xilence who is willing to pay $20
