Ok.

This are the power requirements for the 5770.

ATI Radeon™ HD 5770 System Requirements

PCI Express® based PC is required with one X16 lane graphics slot available on the motherboard
450 Watt or greater power supply with one 75W 6-pin PCI Express® power connectors recommended (600 Watt and two 6-pin connectors for ATI CrossFireX™ technology in dual mode)
Certified power supplies are recommended. Refer to http://ati.amd.com/certifiedPSU for a list of Certified products
Minimum 1GB of system memory
Installation software requires CD-ROM drive
DVD playback requires DVD drive
Blu-ray™ playback requires Blu-ray drive
For an ATI CrossFireX™ system, a second ATI Radeon™ HD 5770 graphics card, an ATI CrossFireX Ready motherboard and one ATI CrossFireX Bridge Interconnect cable per graphics card (included) are required


The recommended PSU is for the entire system.

So, u can go with this Antec 650W or this Antec 750W since u want the H50.

P.D. U can get the same performance of the H50 with a Hyper 212+ and save a little of money.

i had a coolmaters silent pro 700w come with the case. some are saying its cutting it close to using it.


do you think that using it will be pushing my luck?

or should i use it for a year then get a 1000w?

or just get a 1000w psu now?


i dont know what to do :??:
 
1- U can use that Coolermaster PSU, with "don't make good PSUs" I mean that aren't as better as Antec, Corsair, Seasonic or PC Power and Cooling.
2- Why a 1000W PSU? For ur rig u don't need that power.
3- If u want change the PSU, u can go with the Antec 650W that I say up.

no problem will do.

but may i ask way? (trying to learn about pc building)



thanks for the the help,if you could show me the best ans butten i will pick you.
 
Way? or Why?

Why?, because since the 5770 needs 450W for a single GPU, if the 700W PSU can't handle the single GPU when u boot ur rig and work in load, less can handle the Crossfire that need 600W.
