PSU Panic

MrMoonX · 4 Jul 2012 at 21:29

Right I've ordered a totally new build which will be here tomoz, now I'm freaking out that I got a PSU that isn't enough to power the system and regretting not getting the 750 XFX one, I ordered this one http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-166-CM&groupid=701&catid=123&subcat=1103

The system is an ivy i5 with a m4 SSD 1TB HDD and a windforce GTX670, 3 case fans, someone please tell me that it will be ok.

600w will be plenty

Andantech showed the 670 pulled 300w whilst gaming, including system.

Yes it will be fine, it says that you need a 500w supply on NVIDIA's website.

It's a good match for your system. The 670 and ivy are very efficient. 40 amps on 12 volts is plenty.

For comparison, I've clocked 450W peak power usage at the plug with my overclocked i5, and two 6950 crossfire.

ahhh sweet thanks guys, I know the 750 xfx is better but it was £30 I could spend on getting the windforce 670 instead of a reference, also helped that ocuk reduced it
