Can you guys recommend a good quality, very silent 650W PSU for under $100 from PCCASEGEAR.com

mltnl · Jun 5, 2014

I realise that the quality of the PSU may severely affect a computer but i'm not sure how seriously these effects are.

I've seen people recommend Corsair countless times but they are so expensive.

Has anyone tried the Cougar RS750 750W 80 PLUS Certified Power Supply and had any problems? i've heard cases of Cougar PSUs dying after a month.

I'm primarily buying from pccasegear.com if someone could recommend me a quality and very silent PSU.

Thanks

A low quality PSU can actual damage the system. There are not any good 750w PSU's on that site for $100 or less. The cheapest 750w PSU I would recommend was $160(http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=15_226&products_id=23796) but if you were to spend that much then i'd suggest spending an extra $10 on this http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=27745&cPath=535

What are the specs of the system?

It's my first build,

Is 650w enough for the gpu, etc.?

bignastyid · Jun 5, 2014

650w is more than enough. A good 550w would be enough. The 650w Antec would be a good choice but if you want to stay below $100 you can get the 620w Antec HCG for $99 http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=15_535&products_id=15134

Since the gtx770 requires at least 600w, does overclocking require extra wattage? I honestly don't know what overclocking does to the wattage

bignastyid · Jun 5, 2014

The 600w recommendation is that high because of mediocre PSU's. The system in my sig with a single GTX 770 draws ~350w under my typical gaming load(that's with an overclocked cpu and gpu). A good 550w unit would have no issues with that load. Overclocking does use a little more juice.
