esCob4r Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Ok so I just got a Corsair TX650 Power supply. I will soon be getting an AMD 1090T BE processor as well as a Asrock 990FX Extreme. I am currently running an Evga GTX560 SC(Non ti version), 4x2Gig of DDR3 1600Mhz G.Skill memory, a Corsair H60 Cooler, an old IDE Samsung dvd player, 1x150G SataII 7200RPM and 1x500G SataII 7200RPM, and a total of 6 fans which include the push/pull fans on my corsair h60. I would love to be able to add another video card into the loop like SLI 560 but that won't be a for a while. So My question is, Will a Corsair TX650 V2 PSU be enough power to power up an Amd 1090T BE, Asrock 990FX, Evga GTX560SC(Non TI), 8gig DDR3 1600Mhz G.Skill, 2 SataII 7200RPM, Corsair H60 with push pull set up, Samsung IDE dvd drive, USB Keyboard and Mouse, and 4 - 6 addition 120MM fans(LED).

esCob4r Posted February 18, 2012 Author Share Posted February 18, 2012 Also would I have any room to add an additional video card to the mix or would I need to upgrade the PSU in order to do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garvin Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Single video card you're fine. http://www.legitreviews.com/article/1617/1/ http://www.corsair.com/power-supply-units/enthusiast-series-power-supply-units/enthusiast-series-tx650-v2-80-plus-bronze-certified-650-watt-high-performance-power-supply.html Dual cards, you should be able to get away with it but at maximum gaming loads you'll be pushing it pretty hard. This depends partially on the resolution of the monitor you're driving, the higher the resolution the more power required. Under 1920x1080, doubt you'd run into a problem. 1920x1080 and above, could be problamatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently I game at 1280X1024 and probably won't increase that much unless if I decide to hook my tv back up as a monitor. And thank you for the links. I didn't look to long but I have been trying to find something to read so I can review this item. Also I have not set anything to 1080P so I do not think i am running 1080P. Unless if with this 560 it comes automatically. Either way my monitor does not support 1080P nor does my tv so it wouldnt be worth running 1080P for me.
