help psu and gpu compalitiblity

[MinerModi]

So Im going to get a gtx 950 but my psu doesnt have a 6 pin connector,so i thought i could just use a molex adapter but maybe they meant to not include the 6 pin cable please dont mislead me i dont want to blow up my gpu pictures below oh and this is a custom built pc by me.

 

 

 

specs:

i3-4150

2gb ram(upgrading)

320gb hdd(upgrading 

Rosewill FBM-01

Ac tech psu

you can try looking for a new psu, but because its a rosewill im assuming it came with the case, is it stranded size of a custom fit?

[Oshino Shinobu]

I would replace the PSU before putting a 970 950 in. Molex isn't designed to handle that much power, especially not from a crappy PSU. 

 

Look for something like a EVGA B2 series, Antec High Current Gamer or anything from Seasonic as a replacement.

can you find the model number?

[OAcesync]

I really would get a new PSU, I wouldn't risk using Molex adapters especially with a PSU like that

EVGA B2 is great budget option

[ATrollAaaNnnnn]

u will watch your world burn, get a gpu and psu.

[don_svetlio]

get a better PSU - that one doesn't even havea a wattage rating on the +12V rail.

Get SeaSonic, Super Flower, Antec or EVGA

or XFX

[don_svetlio]

or XFX

XFX are SeaSonic rebrainds of the S12II, S12G and the G-series I believe

[don_svetlio]

It only has 33A on the +12V rail.

 

33A*12V = 396W

 

Nowhere near the 600W it claims to be.

 

Typical shitty PSU.

 

Do yourself a favor. Don't keep that ticking timebomb in your PC.

This!

Replace before this happens

[Mug]

You'll be fine. I think there is a 2x molex to 6 pin included in your graphics card box. I would replace your power supply eventually but you don't need to right now.

It's not a 970, it's a 950 that he's after.

 

Besides, Molex can carry 5A-8.5A apparantly so don't worry about Molex.

 

 

u will watch your world burn, get a gpu and psu.

 

Power supplies have to be able to suply the power they're rated for safely. The power supply is fine for the application, although should be considered as an upgrade in the future.

[themaniac]

it costs a bit more but completely worth it

It can carry it, but it's not something I would trust, even on a good PSU.

Don't know where I got 970 from.. Must have read it wrong. 

[don_svetlio]

yeah, but antec and evga also uses oems like xfx, evga super flower, seasonic, fsp, and hec, antec uses delta,  seasonic, and more i dont remember

Antec use mainly Delta, Super Flower make their own - EVGA are super flower

[themaniac]

Antec use mainly Delta, Super Flower make their own - EVGA are super flower

i know they make there own, and evga isn't just superflower, they also use seasonic(seasonic g for there gs) fsp and hec, and antec use seasonic for a few of there psu's

I'm talking the main OEM - like Corsair have 75% CWT, AX by SeaSonic, AXi by Flextronics.

are you sure since thats what im going for gpu first and then in about a month psu

[don_svetlio]

if you run a beefy GPU off that PSU you will burn it out - both of them i mean - that PSU was not made to handle GPUs - hence the absence of PCIe connectors.
