Which Power Supply should I get for my P.C.? (for gaming).

[SeanBond]

It was about 20sec but I had to put in my Password so.

I stop counting at the password screen so I guess add one second and you have the desktop?

Love how this power supply question turned into an ssd discussion

My password is long and I am not the fastest type so it's closer to 2 sec. I will redo the test and stop the timer at the password screen and see where it's at. Of course we are not on the same mobo so we would have to account for how long the boot screen is on the screen or perhaps you disabled it via the bios on your system.

Of course, this is what I have right now:

The thing is that I don't want to change my GPU because I don't think I have enough money for a good GPU because I've got to buy other things like the RAM and a case also I haven't buy the motherboard yet I bought the CPU yesterday.

 

My budget is about $400 more or less

Go with an 8GB Dual channel ram kit and get another Kingston V300 120GB SSD because there is no sense on wasting money on a faster SSD to run with a slower one in RAID0. Get a good quality 700watt PSU and your set.

No, that is not exactly what I meant. I was thinking about get another V300 because already have 1 of those

 

And this is the 2nd option: Get 2 new ones of a higher range Hyper X series or something... Both of them on RAID O.

but w=how could you be sure it is a very off comparisons or you have a very bloated windows

In practice you will not notice any speed increase going to a faster SSD ... It's just a synthetic thing. Best to stick with the V300s cause you already have one.

actually you will notice it easily i can tell the difference easily

My Windows is tip top ship shop shape. All start up programs that do need to start up on boot are disabled like Steam etc.

Yeah that's what I thought and of course I need to buy other things rather than a new SSD 'cause I already have 1.

Ok so if you dont have a stop watch you would never notice the difference. Like buddy's EVO vs my V300 it boots in the same time LOL.

No point in not using the SSD as it's perfectly fine. Use it tell it breaks then buy a faster one and relish in the 1sec upon boot up that you saved LOL.

Boot time from Splash screen to password screen is 14sec on the V300 ... exactly the same boot time as the Samsung EVO.

doesnt mean tip top

boots are not everything daily use is a lot

[mst646]

yea

Yeah, help me out with the power supply first than all, because I believe that the CPU and MOBO are just fine.

did you time it yet

[I/O]

doesnt mean tip top

I did a little bit of performance tuning as well but nothing major. No need to as the SSD is so fast.

and more reliability and faster everything

true but some other things also matter

I have been done for awhile now LOL. 14sec from Splash screen to password screen according to iphone 4s

okay that is a start

Oh my 100,000hrs vs 99,000 operational hrs big deal. If you want long term reliability over 10 years than get Enterprise grade kit. Others wise pay consumer level prices and up grade on a regular basis like the rest of us LOL.

blah it is better so a random failure happens from a shitty component
