Recommended power supply for this system

slippyjim · Jan 6, 2014

Hi,

Using the power supply calulator it says min 570W recommended 620W, Im thinking of a Thermaltake or similar

What power supply would you recommend for this system
Intel i7-3930K socket 2011
Gigabyte X79-UD3
4 * 4GB Corsair 1600 DDR3
Nvidia GTX570
8 sata hard drives
1 DVDRW
2 200mm fans
2 120mm fans

Thanks,

Just grab any corsair, antec, seasonic 550w to 600w psu, that system at most uses 400w (rough guesstimate, 130 for cpu, 225 for gpu, 'bout 5-10w for each hdd.)

Don't grab any thermaltake PSUs.

I would say get a 800-850 PSU for futureproof but if you don't want it just get a 650 Watt PSU. I recommend Silverstone it is good but cheap aswell

Antec 620watt http://pcpartpicker.com/part/antec-power-supply-hcg620m

Thanks for the info
Unfortunately where I live I can only get the following
Coolermaster
Thermaltake
NZXT
Club 3D
Corsair 550W

What is the best from those brands?

It depends on the individual PSU from some of those manufacturers, for example if you are talking Corsair VS 550watt and comparing it to similar Cooler master Silent PRO M the Cooler master is much better.

Silent pro gold 600 http://www.kitguru.net/components/power-supplies/zardon/cooler-master-silent-pro-gold-600w-power-supply-review/5/ is the one I would aim for.
