Help me pick a Psu!

[mcmad358]

My upcoming build :

AMD fx 8320 8 core

Sapphire vapor x r9 290

Adata xpg v1.0 8gb

Custom water loop

[aidenrelkoff]

a 750-800 Watt would suffice. 

 

BTW just encase u dident know, the 8320 sits around 65-70* Celsius and draws a crap ton of power and thats at like idle.

I would go with the 6300, its a 6 core and its quite a bit colder 

[TheDigitalRealm]

Any 650W PSU from reputable source should do just fine with a nice amount of headroom.

750w and 800w are overkill for this, unless he plans to crossfire.

 

A 600w/650w will do nicely.

I'm going to do a custom water loop for it

LOL my OCed FX8320 can idle at 13C and gaming only goes to 46C.

it must be user error or bad cooler.

[daemonowner]

It's the temperature sensors. AMD sensors are worthless. It's hotter than that for sure.

i dont have the 8320, Pistol from Tek Syndicate had it, and Logan said it was like a "little furnace"

 

Also explain to me how the cpu can be colder then room temperature (it cant)

Me human, no PC, me no undestand how temp works....

but thats my temp, max is when i ran Prime95.

agreed, my cpu says its 12* at idle, but think about it, it cant possibly be colder then room temp. Even the best water cooling, can only be as cold as the air that is passing through the rad.

My upcoming build :

AMD fx 8320 8 core

Sapphire vapor x r9 290

Adata xpg v1.0 8gb

So far this is ~ 385W

Now, with the custom water loop you would need a pump (12V) ~ 23W

 

Total: 408W (excluding hdd, fans, dvd drive, ...)

So I recommend this PSU: Corsair 650W - RM650 CP-9020054-WW

Oh well if Logan said so...

[The_Strict_Nein]

AMDs temperature sensors are completely incorrect. It's physically impossible to cool something below room temperature by blowing room temperature air at it. You can only cool something below room temperature if you have a source of cold colder than room temperature. It's also why you can't make something reach absolute zero. You'd need something colder than absolute zero in order to get something too absolute zero

So the 

Corsair 
RM650 or the Supernova 750? G2

You could also consider Be Quiet! Most of their PSUs have not even 1 bad review. You could take a look at the Straight Power or Dark power series.

i have a fractal design r2 integra 650W, can i use that until i can pay for the Corsair one? (2 6+2 connectors also)

Are you thinking of crossfire later on?

[quan289]

The Supernova 750w G2 is a better build, higher-end PSU.

 

You could stick with your FD Integra R2 for your build btw.

Awesome, that will save me a lot of money, thanks man
