Just a little advice please. My PSU went BANG!!! so it's time for a new one. Current System MSI P67A-C45 Intel i5 2500K MSI 560Ti Twin Frozr II/OC 8Gb Ram 128Mb Crucial M4 1TB Hard Drive 2xDVD Rom USB 3.0 Card Reader I've been looking at the following based on the fact that everything was running fine before my 580W PSU blew (Probably due to moving the PC). Thermaltake 675W Toughpower XT Modular PSU - £70 http://www.ebuyer.com/234912-thermaltake-675w-toughpower-xt-modular-psu-tpx-675m Corsair TX 650W V2 - £67 http://www.ebuyer.com/257232-corsair-tx-650w-v2-psu-80plus-bronze-certified-cmpsu-650txv2uk XFX P1-650S-UKB9 Pro Series - £70 http://www.scan.co.uk/products/650w...f-80-plus-bronze-sli-crossfire-eps-12v-fan-at Thanks
If you want to SLI at any point then it is between the Thermaltake Toughpower XT 675W and the XFX Pro 650W Core Edition, as those are the only ones out of those three which have the connectors for two GTX 560 Tis. If you prefer a modular PSU then there's no shame in choosing the TT XT 675W. You can get the XFX cheaper elsewhere: http://www.aria.co.uk/SuperSpecials...+Power+Supply+(Seasonic+OEM)+?productId=45333 http://www.dabs.com/products/xfx-650-watt-core-edition-full-wired-power-supply-7NSX.html
if you think you might sli in the future, a 650w should be fine for x2 560ti, but make sure it has the connections like another user said above. quality > watts really, so id stay around 650w but looks to spend a bit more out of the selection above id go with the corsair
in which case, i'd drop down to a 550w and get a higher quality one, something like enermax perhaps. the reason i say this is, if you are willing to spend ~70 on these psus, you may as well still spend 70 on a psu, it will just be better quality, and more suited to your needs edit: just realised the enermaxes were quite a bit more than £70, my bad. well, i dont think you need a ~650w for that, i mean if you had one already, there's nothing wrong with it, but seeing as you know you won't be going sli, there's no point. i have an 850w, as at some stage i am getting a gtx 680, and i have a feeling in a couple of years i'll get another
this one might be right for you http://www.scan.co.uk/products/520w...-eff-80-plus-bronze-eps-12v-quiet-fan-atx-v23 see what other people recommend
If you want a bit of future proofing as well you could get the xfx 750watt pro xxx semi modular. Its about £95, supposed to be the best bang for buck 750 watt available atm. It did very well in all the testing, thats why i got it
