Need help with PSU

[Jianwei Tan]

Which super flower 550w silver / 650w silver / 550w gold better or efficient?

My build : i5 6500, msi b150m bazooka, 8gb ddr4 2133mhz, stock CPU cooler..

Currently using gtx 660 with old 510w PSU.. was thinking going for zotac gtx 1070 amp edition non extreme.. but don't know which wattage suitable for going non OC pc or enough to tahan this setup.. Thanks for reading.

Can just get seasonic m12ii 520w for $99, more than enough for gtx 1070.

Gold has better efficiency than sliver, and if u are gonna OC the GPU for prolong period get 650w gold.

I'm using a Superleadex Gold 550W and love it. 550W will be more than enough for your requirement, and Gold over Silver for better efficiency.

Go for SuperFlower Leadex 550w Platinum if budget allows.

Thanks everyone.. I can't go platinum one haha.. I got thought of going seasonic m12ii but it's bronze certified .. with that amount add like $7 can get silver on super flower silver de..

Got thought of going gold also.. same price as 650w silver but gold one is 550w.. since my build isn't going oc.. I going gold like xuan87 said.. thanks all..

But silver 550w enough ? I mean if can save more why not haha

Edit : is there any different with amp edition and amp extreme edition ? I mean like how many fps different ? Since everywhere sell $768 for amp extreme.. and $698 for amp edition.. price very big gap.. but gaming dk got big different not..

 

[ZrE0_Cha0s]

not much u can get from it, the difference is only a small fps beside that if u are playing on 60hz also wont have much affections if u can gain that few fps.

beside that size and cooler is better in amp extreme.

if u are not going OC u can even go for bronze. unless u are using ur pc for prolong period like 12 hrs or longer, can consider for gold

 

[Jianwei Tan]

Thanks for reply.. I play one shot 12 hours de.. maybe I go gold one.. Thanks everyone

Sorry TS to ks your thread.. I was also looking for a new PSU, Lazada doesn't seem to have it in stock

Seems like PSUs dying are a common occurrence...

Sorry hijack a bit. Is the Superflower Leadex silver 550W enough to power Sapphire R9 390? Got the PSU and thought of getting that card (I know it requires 750W).

well 750w is CF mode. i think should be more than enough for 550W.

I have 2 seasonic psus in separate systems that died within 3 Mths of each other. Each were only 1 to 2 years old... Suggest to avoid seasonic

Sad to hear the sad state of Seasonic PSU quality going down hill

Well they are rock solid stable on 12v...the problem is that the other rails are not strong enough I guess. Having problems booting up and resuming from sleep.

I got the Superflower HX600 600W Golden Green 80+ Gold for $90

You should invest in Gold for better efficiency and components used.
