What is the difference between those 2 psu's

Zapplord · Aug 9, 2014

Hi, I was wondering what was the diffecrence between those 2 psu's

1- http://www.directcanada.com/products/?sku=14660AC4568&vpn=PS-TPD-0750MPCGUS-1&manufacture=THERMALTAKE

2- http://www.directcanada.com/products/?sku=14660AC2875&vpn=PS-TPG-0750MPCGUS-1&manufacture=THERMALTAKE

and if they could run

This GPU : http://www.directcanada.com/products/?sku=12980BD2037&vpn=R9%20290%20GAMING%204G&manufacture=MSI

with this CPU : http://www.directcanada.com/products/?sku=12200BD3588&vpn=BX80646I54690K&manufacture=INTEL

They are the exact same except:
-The 1st one is only semi modular. Some (but not all) cables come preattached. Better than non modular (all cables preattached) as you get to chose if you want extra cables or not (less clutter, for tidiness)
-The second one is fully modular. No cables come preattached, and you attach only the ones you need. Better than semi modular.

Both psus are overkill for single card configurations. The difference between them is one is modular and the other is semi modular

Use this PSU calculator: http://www.extreme.outervision.com/PSUEngine
I put i7 4690, r9 290, 4 sticks ddr3 ram, 1 ssd, 2 hdd's, 1 dvd drive, 6 usb devices, and 5 fans, and it recommended at least 500W. Your psu should be more than enough for your current build and many(if not all) future upgrades.

Both will run the gpu and cpu with plenty of power to spare. There seems to be only two differences in the specs. First the tpg is fully modular and the 750w output is measured at 50C rather than 40C. Fully modular is a little easier to work with. The power rating difference means the tpg have slightly better parts. Same OEM(CWT) and power output on the 12v rail(744W) on both psu, the price difference is only $20. I'll go with the TPG beside it looks cooler.
