Probably less with that rig. Many people on [H] forum were running up to a 5850 with even an i5 750 on 300W PSUs, as that was before Silverstone or FSP released the higher rated SFX PSUs. Little edgy admittedly, but they're not that bad.
Correct but he would have no wiggle room if he ever bought a 2nd 460 and wanted to SLI in the future, better going with a decent Antec or Coolermaster 550/650W unit.
bit-tech reviewed the Antec Tru Power 650 and gave it 10/10 so how come that is not recommended here? http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/psus/2010/02/22/600-700w-psu-review-round-up/7 It was only released last year - are there now much better PSUs (quieter, more efficient) ? Also, each recommended PSU should link to the relevant bit-tech review (if there is one).
Because this list is very old, check the date the thread was started. It has not been kept up to date by the OP. It's a bit worthless now tbh and should have its' sticky status removed.
Actually, if you check the 1st post it says: Last edited by Moyo2k; 5th Mar 2011 at 21:51., which suggests that it is still being updated
Good spot, I hadn't seen that. Maybe if the poll was removed it would be clearer as well. I also refer to this list on a regular basis: http://www.overclock.net/power-supplies/183810-faq-recommended-power-supplies.html
well after going over to the "JonnyGuru" recommended PSU link, it seems that the Enermax Galaxy EVO is just a rebranded version of the Revolution 85 series but simply the 80 plus rating is taken down a notch... is that true?
Damn, my local store doesn't have any Enermax EVOs in stock. Well the reason that I am looking for a PSU is because my Enermax Galaxy DXX's fan died and its an odd 135mm size. Its an easy fix by zip tying a 120mm fan but the tricky part is to find a fan with the correct minimum voltage or the PSU starts screaming. Oh well, I guess the AX1200 it is...or I could special order the Enermax in... hmm decisions decisions decisions...
Fantastic! Now if we could modify the title of this thread to read that the list is maintained on the first page...
Would you guys say the Antec TP 650w is one of the best in its range? I am looking for a PSU preferrably 650w with a budget of upto £80.
