Aerocool Strike-X 600W the problem in my build?

foxmlg · Jul 8, 2014

I have:

-i7 2600k not OC'd
-4x2GB DDR3 Ram
-MSI GTX 660 Ti Power Edition (Going to get a MSI GTX 770 Gaming next month)
-3 HDD's
-1 SSD Samsung 840 EVO 250GB
-P8H67 M-EVO
-4x 120mm case fans
-1 CD/DVD RW

I had a Halfmman 700W..
And I bought a new case.. and a new PSU..

But since I changed to Aerocool Strike-X 600W, my CPU seems to not work as intended in Real Time Interpolation Softwares like SVP.. its like 30% less performance in that. (I also use GPU OpenCL acceleration).

And on minecraft I can no longer run optifine + 128x Texture Packs.

And sometimes the pc freezes and I need to restart it.

I didnt notice any fps change on BF4, but its possible that there is some change. I just didnt notice it, cus I dont remember how it was.

I didnt have any problems with the other PSU..

*I bought this new PSU because Im going to change to a GTX 770..

If its the PSU fault, What PSU do you guys recomend me to buy, at a price range of 50 to 80€?
And at least 80+ Bronze.

looks nice.. but it it a problem of my PSU?

Dark Lord of Tech · Jul 8, 2014

Could be it's a very poor power supply.

I wouldn't run a 770 with it.

megaman1051 · Jul 8, 2014

i can only think that its because you stepped the power down to be honest you should of gone higher since your getting a 770 dropping the psu was a mistake.
have you tried to run your system without the vid card?

foxmlg · Jul 8, 2014

My problem isnt the graphics card.. the problem i have is poor CPU performance.. at least thats what it apears to be..

I saw in the PSU box that it says: "Supports Dual Core CPU, ATI Crossfire, NVIDIA SLI and all Multi-Core GPU technologies."

Does that mean it doesnt support 4 core CPUs? maybe thats the problem..?

And can you recommand another PSU, of another brand or something? still at the same price range. ofc. cus here the stores are a bit limited at what brands they can get, and Im not able to make purchases online.

you need somthing around 800W to 1K
and as for brand my personal opinion is that corsair are good but just look for any with a gold or plat rating these are very efficient psu

megaman1051 :

I dont need anything above 700W that I know for sure.. lol
Im only going to be running a 660 Ti..
and then a 770..

not both at the same time.

If the money is enough.. I also like to do that..

The Aerocool Strike-X 600W is made by Andyson. That's the same company that makes the majority of Raidmax's PSUs.

I wouldn't trust any Andyson made PSU.
