Which PSU should I buy?

JustNeedSomeHelp · Oct 23, 2013

Hello. I'am gonna buy a new gaming computer, and I was thinking to buy SILVERPOWER SP-S850 850W PSU ATX. I don't know so much about it, just that pretty many people has gave it 5 stars.

Anyway, I will buy 2x sapphire radeon 280x and i7 4770k.

I would spend a little extra for this one: http://www.komplett.no/k/ki.aspx?sku=657688

It's made by SeaSonic. All of XFX power supplies are made by SeaSonic, who is arguably the best PSU OEM in the market today. The one you linked to is manufactured by Solytech and I don't know much about them.

But I will buy all my other components from another site which is cheaper then komplett.no. And that site don't got XFX 850w. So could you answer me if that silver power PSU will run well?

Dark Lord of Tech · Oct 23, 2013

I wouldn't buy it.The PSU is the heart of your system , give it a good reliable unit.

The Q6660 Inside :

I can't. I will buy my other components from another site since komplett.no is more expensive. So how will the silver power supply run? Is it quality or shouldn't I buy it?

JustNeedSomeHelp · Oct 23, 2013

Well, I could buy a AX 860w. But then I can't buy i7 4770k. Thats why I'am looking for a pretty cheap power supply.

rolli59 · Oct 23, 2013

Agreed go with a quality PSU. Other brands like Corsair, Seasonic and Antec to look at.

ksham · Oct 23, 2013

It's worth noting that the SP-S850 line is discontinued. Thank god for that.

The Q6660 Inside · Oct 23, 2013

JustNeedSomeHelp :

It was once good, but it is aging and there are better units around. Units like the HX850 and even better, the Seasonic X850 KM3 (all XFX 850W units, Cooler Master V850, Corsair AX non-i 850 and 860) platform will stand the test of time. Never skimp on the PSU, it just does not pay off..

Spend the money on the XFX , you won't regret it.

+1, and for gaming, the 4770K won't make a difference, it is most sensible to go 4670K for gaming. If he can get the AX860 for the price of an XFX 850 XXX on komplett then he should go for that. I have been rocking my Seasonic-Built PCP&C Silencer 750 Quad for 5 years and it has not let me down!

Can you provide the link to the other site that you will buy the product from? Perhaps we can pick one from there.

For one, on Komplett the XFX is within the budget. If not, the Antec HCG will have to do.. http://www.supersmart.no/PartDetail.aspx?q=p:6111621
