2080TI 500w

Denmark2080

Hello there!

 

I inherited a RTX 2080TI FE, can I use it on my 500w Silverstone PSU, the recommended PSU on the calculator sites suggests 440w, however, Nvidia suggests a 650w PSU, which is a big difference.

Would "downclocking" reduce the power drawn or only reduce the temps? 

 

 

EDIT: currently using an Rx480

2080Ti is 320W max, the 500W PSU may work if the rest of your system isn't very powerful (no 12900K lol)

Not sure of your PSU quailty though

Undervolting may help reduce the load

Depends on the model of PSU and what other hardware you're running. But yeah, probably will work.

My suggestion is to remove your CPU overclocking (if applicable), and not to overclock the GPU. Throw some benchmarks at it and see what happens. Monitor the voltage if you can.

I'm using a Ryzen 5600X limited to 3 ghz (again, not sure if that makes any difference to power drawn)

Looks to be a solid unit, just doesn't like being hot (has trouble delivering rated power), so long as whatever it's in has airflow should be fine.

Even a maxed out 5600X sips power, you should be fine wattage wise.

Why?!? That poor poor 5600X 😞

Ex-Cryptominers are offloading PSU on Ebay at ok prices.
Get a used PSU with the correct power output so the rest of your system doesn't, die.

is there a program I can use that monitor how much power it delivers?

Keeps the temps down and I don't really need more.

No, aside from pretty rare digital/digital monitoring PSUs ( Corsairs -i suffix ones and a couple others) you can't see what the PSU is actually spitting out without some fancy machinery. If you know the efficiency curve of the unit, and use a wattbox to grab the power draw from the wall, you could figure out how much power it's actually providing to the PC that way. 

 

The easiest way tho, if it goes over what it can safely deliver, your PC will shut off instantly. So pretty clear message that something's pulling too much. If it doesn't do that, you should be fine.

Tier lists for building a PC.

 

Motherboard tier list. Tier A for overclocking 5950x. Tier B for overclocking 5900x, Tier C for overclocking 5800X. Tier D for overclocking 5600X. Tier F for 4/6 core Cpus at stock. Tier E avoid.

(Also case airflow matter or if you are using Downcraft air cooler)

Spoiler

 

Gpu tier list. Rtx 3000 and RX 6000 not included since not so many reviews. Tier S for Water cooling. Tier A and B for overcloking. Tier C stock and Tier D avoid.

( You can overclock Tier C just fine, but it can get very loud, that is why it is not recommended for overclocking, same with tier D)

Spoiler

 

Psu tier List. Tier A for Rtx 3000, Vega and RX 6000. Tier B For anything else. Tier C cheap/IGPU. Tier D and E avoid.

(RTX 3000/ RX 6000 Might run just fine with higher wattage tier B unit, Rtx 3070 runs fine with tier B units)

Spoiler

 

Cpu cooler tier list. Tier 1&2 for power hungry Cpus with Overclock. Tier 3&4 for overclocking Ryzen 3,5,7 or lower power Intel Cpus. Tier 5 for overclocking low end Cpus or 4/6 core Ryzen. Tier 6&7 for stock. Tier 8&9 Ryzen stock cooler performance. Do not waste your money!

Spoiler

 

Storage tier List. Tier A for Moving files/  OS. Tier B for OS/Games. Tier C for games. Tier D budget Pcs. Tier E if on sale not the worst but not good.

(With a grain of salt, I use tier C for OS myself)

Spoiler

 

Case Tier List. Work In Progress. Most Phanteks airflow series cases already done!

Ask me anything :)

Still significantly better than my old CPU, and I can use the PC now with the door closed

Nope need electrical tools...

But I think you worry too much, a 300W GPU +  a max 100W CPU (remove your limit man, you cripple this poor thing !) will not have issues with your 500W PSU if it's not crap

Worst case it'll shut down and you'll know it's upgrade time 🙂
