Rig PSU requirements

[SkulD]

Hi guys I wish to power up this system

 

AMD Phenom II x4 955

MSI 970a-46

8gigs ram

1 HDD

2 HD 7870 (crossfire)

Cooler master 212 EVO

4 120mm Fan

 

I want to know if this PSU is enough for this.

 

Corsair 600w GS600.

 or

Cooler master 650w GX650.

 

both are 80+ bronze.

 

Any input is appreciated =D

What about this HCG-620 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371059

 

Pretty sure it's Seasonic made. Modular. Cheaper. Way more than enough.

 

 

 

 

 

Edit:

Not that one, only 2 6+2 pins. Xfx 650w http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817207022 has 4 6+2 pci-e. That other stuff too.

You could go with a 500w psu and I'll have more then a enought power

500-650W Will be enough. 

 

Make sure it is a high quality PSU though.

Really? Nice i wanted to make sure that those PSUs where enough, thank you guys.

PC retailers have a pretty limited variety of products where i live, so those 2 and a thermaltake are withing my budget wich one of those is better?

Thanks in advance

I would go for the corsair one for sure the coolermaster one is garbage

Which GX 650? There's two revisions of the GX. One is made by Seventeam (E3 at the end of the model number) which is a poor unit that goes out of specs and the other is made by Enhance Electronics (D3), which is indeed better than the Seventeam unit; however, it's still a mediocre low-end power supply.

 

So between the two, I would go with the GS600 Bronze either way. It's a good mid-range unit. It however, lacks the native connectivity for CFX, as it only offers you two PCIe connectors - forcing you to use molex adapters.

 

Since you are from SA, Sentey is well-known brand there. Is a Sentey Golden Steel Power 650w available within your budget? If so, it's an excellent high-end unit and I would recommend that. If not, do you have a NZXT Hale82 650-M (not Hale82-N)? If no to that as well, can you provide a list of what you can get?
