I recently bought a gtx 760 windforce x3 from gigabyte. However it blew up my 550W unbranded PSU thankfully all the other components in the PC are fine. I ordered a 600W PSU from cooler master, never going for cheap psu's ever again..

Will this PSU be enough ? I heard cooler master is good.. It has enough of the outlets needed so im hoping this wil work

More about : adequate power supply

Hi Fardin Ahsan
The GeForce GTX 760 requires a psu with 30A on the +12v rail and a 500W PSU minimum
The coolermaster Thunder 600w has enough wattage for some headroom and has 47A on the plus 12v rail
It will be good enough to drive your card.
That being said the thunder is a budget psu and has low grade capacitors ,
Here is your psu
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA49E...
price 117.24
here is a much better psu with high grade japanese capacitors
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
price 89.99

this is just an example , get a quality psu from seasonic/xfx / any psu from corsairs TX,HX or AX range of psu's

So you are affirmative that the PSU can handle the gtx 760 at 1150 ? With no problems under full gaming load ? I mean I already ordered it and I dont live in USA so new egg isnt an option this are expensive where I live and a budget PSU costs alot here.

"Connectors 20 +4 Pin MB x 1 CPU12V 4 +4 Pin x 1 PCI-e 6 +2 Pin x 1 SATA 4Pin Peripheral x 6 x 3 x 1 Floppy 4Pin"

1pcie 8 pin.. I will be needing 1 8pin and 1 6pin in the cooler master site it says there will be 2 pcie connectors however in the site i ordered ffrom and in some other sites it says 1 pcie connector. Can I use the 8 pin only and use the peripheral + the adapter provided from the 6 pin incase thre is only 1 pcie connector.

Hey, I received my order but i think i got the wrong model.. It matches that of a cooler master b500 as it has dual rail with 21 and 24A.. It has 1 pcie 8 pin and some peripheral ones.. Can I rin a gtx 760 and i5 oc'ed to 1150 on this psu ?
