PSU fitting question!

[ViruZ_HUN]

HI!

 

 

How do i know that for example a Corsair AX860i fits in a Corsair 750D?

 

Also whats the difference between AX860i and AX860?

 

Also i saw in a post one day that a guy bought the 750D and he did not find any mobo screws?. the screws with u screw the mobo in the case?

Does it not include in the 750D

 

Also how big is the differnce between 800D and 750D?

 

And how do i know that 750D supports rampage iv formula?. The case shows that it supports E-ATX and Rampage formula is a E-ATX that mean that it supports it?

 

 

Sorry for all the detailed questions (i dont wanna fail)

also i heard that the 290X comes around over 20th october? does anybody knows when?

AX860 is older version, and every ATX psu will fitt into a ATX case and your MoBo will fit.

Also 290x comes 24th day

It will fit

It has corsair link and probably a different OEM

 

They probably did a dumb

 

Stick with the 750D

 

Once again, it will fit

 

Just keep waiting

If it is an ATX psu, it will fit in the case. The AX860i will fit in the case. The difference between the AX860 and the AX860i is that the i version supports Corsair Link while the AX860 does not. The AX860i is made by Flextronics while the AX860 is made by Seasonic. They are both great manufacturers. The screws for the motherboard should come in the case in a box that is placed in the hard drive cage: http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/corsair_obsidian_750d_review,6.html The 750D has more expansion slots than the 800D and it is smaller. If the case says that it supports E-ATX, it supports E-ATX motherboards.

okay thx guys:)

 

So what do u mean By AX860i supports Corsair link and AX860 not?

 

is the 860i worth an extra 20 euro?

1) They are manufactured by two different company. Seasonic SS-***XP2 (KM3) for the AX860 and Flextronic for the AX860i.

2) They are both excellent performer with excellent build quality; however, the AX760i uses a cheaper Yateloon 2BB fan, whereas the AX uses a higher quality 2BB fan from San Ace. For a higher premium unit, I would have expected a FDB on the AXi or keep the same 2BB fan.

3) The ability to switch from single rail mode to multi-rail mode. It's helpful as it allow you to switch between the two during extreme overclocks during benching scenarios (single rail), as well as to add an extra layer of protection during your typical usage (multirail).

4) Software of the AXi (Corsair Link), while in theory it is helpful, is quite buggy and inaccurate to be of any use, TBH.

 

In my opinion, I would save myself the money and get the AX860. The Cooler Master V850 may be a good option as well, it's a KM3 design like the AX.

Corsair Link is a software that allows you to monitor your power supply's fan speeds, temperatures, efficiency, power consumption, etc.http://www.corsair.com/blog/using-link-with-a-corsair-axi-digital-power-supply/I would go with the AX860 because the software is sort of buggy. Another good choice would be the Seasonic X850 as don't see the point of having a Platinum psu because the power cost difference is very small imo: http://www.corsair.com/us/blog/80-plus-platinum-what-does-it-mean-and-what-is-the-benefit-to-me

Okay thx. Does a 850-860 watt PSU is enough for dual r9 290xes?

 

R9 290X= 275 power udage and 2x275= 550 and then i ahve 300 watts left for the other parts is that enough?.

 

I will OC the CPU....

[ViruZ_HUN]

If 1000 watt PSU is needed then 

  Corsair RM1000 1000W

 

would be a good choice for a solid price and is fully modular and is 80+ gold

850W should be enough but I would wait for reviews to release because don't know what the real power consumption is yet.
