Posted June 17, 2013 Would I be able to run a gtx 770 with a 500 watt psu? The psu im using is a rosewill silent night 500w and the card is the MSI Geforce GTX 770 Video Card gaming edition. Also, i will be using a intel i7 4770k with a Samsung 840 pro ssd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted June 17, 2013 Yes but if I were you I would get a bigger power supply for if you want to upgrade. <p>Wires Suck :angry:!fY0|_|(4|\|R34[)7#!5PMM37#3(0[)3:1337 70833|\|73R3[)!|\|49!\/34\|/4Y 4|\|[)93741!f3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted June 17, 2013 If you can afford a GTX770, I'm sure you can go for a 750 watt PSU.

Posted June 17, 2013 As long as you don't overclock too much that should be good enough. I would say throw in $30 and get a 650-750w PSU OS - Windows 8.1 Motherboard - ASUS M5A99FX Pro R2.0 Processor - AMD FX 8350 Black Edition RAM - 16GB 2x8 Crucial Ballistix Sport Graphics Card - Gigabyte Windforce 2 OC GTX 660 Power Supply - Corsair CX750M CPU Cooler - NZXT Kraken X60 Wireless Adapter - ASUS PCE-N15 PCI-E Adapter Fans - x3 Masscool blue LED 120mm Fans Case - Fractal Design Define R4 Monitor - Dell S2230MX 21.5-inch Keyboard - Logitech G105 Mouse - Logitech G602 Speakers - Logitech Z130 Headsets/Headphones - Tt eSports Shock, AKG K240, California Headphones Laredo Phone - iPhone 4S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted June 17, 2013 A 500w would be perfectly fine for a 770, just make sure it's of high quality. Seasonic make good 500wers, I'd pick one of those. export PS1='\[\033[1;30m\]┌╼ \[\033[1;32m\]\u@\h\[\033[1;30m\] ╾╼ \[\033[0;34m\]\w\[\033[0;36m\]\n\[\033[1;30m\]└╼ \[\033[1;37m\]' "All your threads are belong to /dev/null" | 80's Terminal Keyboard Conversion | $5 Graphics Card Silence Mod Tutorial | 485KH/s R9 270X | The Smallest Ethernet Cable | Ass Pennies | My Screenfetch | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted June 17, 2013 yea thats a problem as the gtx 770 needs 42 volts on the 12 volt rail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted June 17, 2013 EVGA requirements GTX700-series requirements are 600w minimum with 42a on 12v rail. configured using an i7- 3.2GHz processor even i think this was linus' flacky results in testing as his PSU only has 38a on 12v rail.. airdeano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted June 17, 2013 Mr Psu will die if you pair the two together. Get a 600w psu with at least 45amps to be the safe side. cpu: intel i5 4670k @ 4.5ghz Ram: G skill ares 2x4gb 2166mhz cl10 Gpu: GTX 680 liquid cooled cpu cooler: Raijintek ereboss Mobo: gigabyte z87x ud5h psu: cm gx650 bronze Case: Zalman Z9 plus Listen if you care.

Posted June 17, 2013 500w would be fine, but it would be safe at 600w.

Posted June 17, 2013 i wouldn't figure so as the same "power" rating is on the chip. usually the PCB could use more, due to the extra power phase it might carry or extra fan solution. but prolly not. it looks like from the 700-series to Titan they all take 42a on 12v rail for single card usage. airdeano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted June 17, 2013 41.5You need a better psu bud.. As for running a high end gpu the most important thing is amps on 12volt rail.. I hate when people say ohh 500 will be fine without even asking that question.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted June 17, 2013 My 560ti 2win runs fine of a 500w psu. In theory the card alone should draw 340w but in practice the whole system only draws 460w when maxed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted June 18, 2013 My 560ti 2win runs fine of a 500w psu. In theory the card alone should draw 340w but in practice the whole system only draws 460w when maxed out. not to bust your chops, but these are two totally different power usage cards. yes, a 560ti can get away with it because it only needs 24amp on a rail and another 16amps to support SLI. so the 560ti2win is needing as expected. airdeano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted June 19, 2013 In short yes it will work but I would be thinking about jumping on board with a new PSU shorty after PSU die a lot faster when you are loading them close to the edge due to heat and overloading the PSU could cause a complete system failure and might kill components with it, in short yes it will work but I would not recommend that you use it for more then a month or two.
