Getting ready to do a new build and im having trouble figuring out the psu.
Here is the rig-
Main Rig-
2xSLI EVGA GTX 980TI Classifieds
Asus Maximus Hero Viii
Intel 6700k 4.0ghz with Cooler Master V8
2x8gb DDR4 3200MHz
Drives-
2x HDD 7200 2TB Seagate Barracudas
1x SDD 128GB Samsung 850 Pro
Optical Drives-
1x HP BD335 Blu Ray RW
1x HP DVD2170 DVD RW+
Fans-
3 to 6 120mm
Controls-
Corsair M65 mouse and K70 Keyboard
Other-
5 to 8 usb connections
Rig will be used for hd and probably 3d gaming, as well as benchmarking
Will be OC'ed in the future when needed, but no need to at first
I currently have a ThermalTake 850w 80+ Bronze SmartM PSU
I would love to be able to keep that since it would save me $100 to $200
I have tried calculators for the psu, but half say my 850w would be fine and other say between 950w and a freaking 1600w. By my calculations i cam up with the 850 working just like pc part picker and new egg's calculator said.
Current system-
Intel I5-2500K OC'ed to 4.5GHz and 5Ghz
2xSLI GTX 580 Lighting Extreme's OC'ed
2x4GB Mushkin Redline Enhanced 2800MHz
Asus P67 Sabertooth
and the same as the rest of the system that's above
runs on the ThermalTake 850W Smart M
