ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z w/ FX-9590 what 1000w + Power Supply to use?

Verlassene · Jan 27, 2014

I am buying an ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z motherboard and plan to game with it. I have a FX-9590 cpu and a R9 290 gpu. I will in the future expand to crossfire gpus so I want pleanty of available power. I also have 7 fans (some140mm and 200mm) and a cpu liquid cooler that comes with the cpu.

What power supply will have the connectors I need and what are the specific connectors I am looking for?

Thanks!

A Corsair HX850 (850 watts) will work well and you can do a 2-way GPU crossfire and runn all the listed items.

I'm loving the responses, but how do I know that these will have all the correct connections? This is my first build from scratch and I am trying to learn how to know for sure. On the newegg pics it shows a couple connectors and the owners guide I downloaded list a bunch...

Can't beat this deal.

1000W Supernova has more than enough.

Connectors
1 x 24 Pin ATX
2x 4+4 Pin EPS12V
6x 6+2 Pin PCI-E
10 x SATA
5 x Molex
1 x Floppy

You do excellent work, thank you so much! Do you mind if I PM you a tentative build list to critique later?

Dark Lord of Tech · Jan 27, 2014
