karcar549 :

The VS really is not that bad.

Not meant for higher end systems thats for sure. But its not THAT bad.

karcar549 · Feb 12, 2014

Novuake :

but its not recommended for gaming systems.i would get 80 plus bronze psu for gaming

Jayy89 · Feb 12, 2014

karcar549 :

unfortunately bro, i have just assembled this CPU a month back, so can't go for a new PSU, so just wanna know if the gfx that you just suggested would work with this PSU or not?

Novuake · Feb 12, 2014

There are no components that are "MADE FOR GAMING". its a common misconception due to marketing from companies like MSI.

That powersupply is perfectly fine as long as you don't run any graphics card that uses more power than an HD7790, R7 260X or GTX650 ti class card.

Its about power consumption, not what you use the system for.

Jayy89 · Feb 12, 2014

Novuake :

so, will that gfx suggested by karyar work with this PSU?

Jayy89 · Feb 12, 2014

Novuake :

so which gfx would u suggest me to go with under Rs.10,000 that will work like a charm and ideal for gaming?

Novuake · Feb 12, 2014

Get whichever you can get cheaper of the 3 below, any of them are good for your PSU :
HD7790 2GB
R7 260X 2GB
GTX650 ti 2GB

Jayy89 · Feb 12, 2014

Novuake :

thanx a lot for the help, bro, will select one out of these 3. I hope u did go through my config. and then suggested these.

Jayy89 · Feb 12, 2014

Novuake :

bro, just checked for the price and all of them are in the range of Rs.12000+, dont have that much of a budget.

Check for 1 GB versions, this will not affect performance much. If prices are still high - go for 7770, next 7750 (but only GDDR5).

Jayy89 · Feb 12, 2014

Nikola Aslanov-1338074 :

So Corsair VS 450 will support these ones comfortably?

karcar549 · Feb 12, 2014

Jayy89 :

Yes

happy shopping

lonewolf7 · Feb 12, 2014

I would say you are taking a massive risk with the worst quality PSU you own. Its not even 80+ certified. That PSU can break under load, so it will be better to stay with HD 7750.

Geforce GTX 650ti Boost - 24A and a 450W PSU minimum
Geforce GTX 650ti - 20A and a 400W PSU minimum

And what games you want to play ?

Jayy89 · Feb 12, 2014

lonewolf7 :

games like Batman, all 3 installments, FIFA, Assassin's Creed, Far Cry 3 etc to name a few,

also, how about HD 7770, will that be a good option considering the performance for games and this PSU??

Jayy89 · Feb 12, 2014

Nikola Aslanov-1338074 :

thinking of going with HD 7770 1 GB DDR5, will cost around 8000.

will that be good enough for my PSU?

Nikola Aslanov-1338074 · Feb 12, 2014

99% the PSU will handle 7770. Recommendation is 500W but i5 4440 is very efficient, so it is ok to reduce PSU wattage a bit.
You can check http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/radeon-hd-7770-7750-benchmark,3135.html for the video card benchmarks.
7770 is currently on Tom's recommended cards for Feb: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107-2.html

lonewolf7 · Feb 12, 2014

Yes you can go with HD 7770, but don't expect decent FPS in games on 1080p. You can play games on mid settings. Your PSU can handle it.

Add another 4GB of RAM for smooth gameplay.

Jayy89 · Feb 12, 2014

Nikola Aslanov-1338074 :

ok, will go with 7770 then, thnx mate...

Jayy89 · Feb 12, 2014

lonewolf7 :

ok, well was planning to buy another 4 gb RAM and since that card is around 7000-7500 here so can buy RAM as well, thnx mate...
