PSU Stong enough?

[CheeZzy]

Hey,

 

I got a simple question but i never found a awnser.

 

I wanted to now if my PSU: Corsair RM650x is good enough to run a RTX 2080 TI 11GB

 

Some specs of my pc:

- CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 2700x

- Motherboard: Gigabyte X470 AORUS ULTRA GAMING

- PSU: Corsair RM650x

- GPU (current): GTX 1060 6GB

 

I hope i can find the anwser here :)

 

Greets,

Greets,

You should 100% be fine.

It'll work but its over threshold for efficiency, your PSU will be making it's most noise as its going to be running its fan 100%. 

 

Things will eat into the supply like spinning drives or optical drives, RGB etc.can be an issue.

 

Nvidia recommends a 650w minimum, the card uses 230w-ish

Greets,

More than plenty.

2700X is about 200W under full load, 2080 Ti is about 266W. The rest of the system adds about 50-100W.

 

EDIT:  oh and I feel like I should mention there is more than a PSU other than wattage, its quality, internal components.. etc. etc. Well the RMx series from Corsair is excellent so no worries there.

The efficiency "curve" for a decent PSU is pretty much a horizontal line, above 10% load ish. The fan will spin at about 600-700 RPM at full load, which you would know if you spent 30 seconds researching this (something I would hope that you would have the courtesy to do for someone asking for help)

I don't know why you're being so passive aggressive. Everything I said was accurate.I did my research.

 

 

If you're doing YOUR research you'd know that the RPM maxes out at 1200-1400 RPM on the RM650x when fully loaded.

I wouldn't specifically buy that for that system, but if I already had it, I'd use it. You're kinda on the edge. Might see some shutdowns when you have heavy loads.

I only have a 550w PSU and I used to run 2 GTX 970s from it without having any issues. I've also used it for a VEGA 64, my current GTX 1070 Ti, and I'll be using it for the RX 5700 XT. It's probably not ideal, but it's working properly, and the loudest part of my computer is the case fans.

 

EDIT: It seems that both the RX 5700 XT and the GTX 2080 Ti draw close to the same amount of power, but neither of them would be drawing more than 2 GTX 970s, which worked fine for me on this PSU, so realistically you should be alright with a 650W PSU. I did have a crappy 700W PSU before that couldn't handle the load of the 2 GTX 970s without shutting off, so it's true that a lower wattage decent PSU beats a high wattage cheaply made one.
