Good enough PSU?

ternity · 19 May 2014 at 02:51

Basically asked for a build on here, was recommended this build -

FX 6core 6300 3.50ghz

4gb team group elite ram

micro-ATX M5A-78LM/USB3

MSI Geforce 750TI

and this PSU - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-015-SF&tool=3

Is this PSU enough to run all of this? I've already ordered it but I was told the minimum for this card is 300, but is it pushing it?

Should be alright, personally I would've gone for something with a bit more power, but if you aren't overclocking then it will cope.

i would get this for some head room, and even a little over clocking in the future if you desire.

YOUR BASKET
1 x EVGA 500W 80 Plus Power Supply (100-W1-0500-KR) £35.99
Total : £45.59 (includes shipping : £8.00).

This will more than enough and give you a bit of headroom.

I wouldn't get that board with a GPU.

The one use that board has is onboard graphics.

Have you bought any of it yet?

In this thread - http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18599938

Was told about the board.

And I pre-warned him about it in this thread - http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18597711

Advice ignored.

Although I notice its gone from a 8350 to a 6300 but same rules still apply, there are no good mATX boards for socket AM3+

Apologies, I put the wrong board down. The m5a is the one I'm replacing.

This was the order-
