[soshy]

Hi again , I had CHoosed Green 685W real PSU for MY Twin Froz 6870 , but Shop keeper Suggest me to Grab this ONE (( POWER GREEN 535B-US ))

ITS REAL 535 , oh Let me Say , i dont have Plans to Oc my Dear VGA Card , I am Not Thinking to get Second One even ! for Now its Just SIngle Monster
for me ! no need Second ONE !

Now

IS that PSU Enough for MY ATI 6870 Twin Frozr & Phenom 955 ?


Info : http://lioncomputer.ir/index.php?product_id=1644

Info of PSU :GREEN/535B EPS / 535W REAL/ ATX 12V/ DUAL +12V RAILS WITH 36A/6 SATA Connectors /E-ATX 8pin connectors

I just wanna Know is 535w Enough or nOt ?( brands & anything else aside )

 

[Toxxyc]

Yes. But only barely. Rather play safe and go for a 600W PSU and be good for a bit of future upgrades as well. Also, the brand you selected is a bit :/, so rather go with a known brand like Corsair, Cooler Master, Thermaltake, Huntkey, etc. etc. Cheap brands don't last long and their efficiency SUCKS, so they are a big no-no for a gaming rig.

CoolerMaster, Huntkey ? :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[soshy]

Ok , so what about 635W ?

 

[soshy]

U guys say that 535 is Low for My hardwares ? i cant do Hardcore gaming with it ?

minimum is 500 w , so i think 535 can do Fine , what do ya think ?

 

[obsidian86]

yes 535 watts is great for you but can that questionable psu provde 535 safe and stable watts?

not all psu's are made the same some will die at the flip of a switch and destroy all the pc hardware or others will last for years without a hitch

which would you rather want ??

 

[soshy]

Stable one for sure ! Ok Can info of this PSU help u to know if its Stable one or Not ?

GREEN/535B EPS / 535W REAL/ ATX 12V/ DUAL +12V RAILS WITH 36A/6 SATA Connectors /E-ATX 8pin connectors

Which part is Bad ?

Oh god i am so Confused ! SHop keepR told me to not worry about PSU ! he said its Great , i Trust Him , he is one of my Dad's best Friends

SO i dont worry about the Brand & Quality of it , I just wanna Know can 535 w Provide me ? because 6870 twin frozr needs atleast 500 w , & 535 can provide 35 w more than Minimum ! is it Fine ?

I would recommend 650W Thermaltake 80+ modular. Modular is so handy for neat cable management and good airflow in the case!!!

 

[obsidian86]

only way to know if a psu is good or bad is to professionally test it

535 watts is enough but some companies lie on psu's like taking a 250 watt power supply and putting on a 600 watt sticker

but if you want something safer

its a known good psu

and dont take the cheaper cooler master psu's they are crap

 

[soshy]

Ok you checked Lioncomputer , so how was the 535w that i choosed ?

 

[ko888]

A non-overclocked MSI R6870 Twin Frozr II will draw a maximum of 13.25 Amps from the +12 Volt rails.

The GP535B power supply unit that you have chosen is theoretically capable of powering your system.

What I've read about that PSU is that it is made by Sirfa/Sirtec.

 

[AngelOfDarkness]

CoolerMaster, Huntkey ? :lol: :lol: :lol:

+1 i didn't heard about that brand in all my wholes lifes.

 

[soshy]

ko888 , ididnt mean GP535B , its old one , the New one ( that i am about to Grab is ) POWER GREEN 535B-US , full info : http://lioncomputer.ir/index.php?product_id=1644

NOW WHAT ?

 

[v1zzle]

CORSAIR for the win. And get a modular PSU, less cables in the way.

NOW WHAT ?

The UL certification for the Sirfa GP-535B-US shows that it provides 25 Amps on each of its two +12 Volt rails.

What little information lioncomputer.ir shows for that power supply unit is almost useless. They should have posted a picture of the label that is stuck on the side of the power supply.

 

[soshy]

Where i can find more info about POWER GREEN 535B-US ?

I'm in South Africa. I've heard about the brand, as was sceptical about it at first as well. But after some research into the matter, it seems quite few people who have bought it has been very pleased with the result. Still (as I mentioned in a different thread), I remain slightly sceptical, but from what I've heard it really is a good PSU, and it competes directly with the likes of Corsair, Thermaltake and Cooler Master in terms of build quality.

T's just what I heard...

 

[soshy]

Usefull , thanks !

the Brand is Fine , many PPL here Like it ! suitable & compatible brand , but the matter is

can 535 Feed my Hardwares ? even at FULL LOAD ? Comment On

 

[AngelOfDarkness]

Tell us your complete system if you really need help, anyway, i'd just don't like " chinese-like " brands, like SharkNet, Noganet, or that one, you may try something good like Corsair, Cooler Master, Antec, OCZ, Seasonic, etc..

 

[Toxxyc]

535W can feed your system, but you will be limiting the PSU so much it might pop after a short while. This is why I recommended a stronger PSU earlier (seeing as how you are running a mammoth amount of HDD's).

If you put everything at full load, the 535W may not be strong enough to support it, damaging the PSU and possibly your entire system.

Thus, the 535W is NOT recommended.

 

[Ten98]

Do not buy a POWER GREEN psu, it is an no-brand peice of crap, despite what your shopkeeper is telling you.

No-brand PSUs never provide the output stated on the box so "535W" is meaningless. You will probably only get 150W per 12V rail before it becomes unstable.

With the gaming hardware you have it will definitely cause your PC to run unstable and may eventually damage your motherboard / ram by sending power spikes.

The PSU is the most important part of your computer and you need to select a good brand.

The hardware you have probably draws about 300W at full load, so you certainly don't need more than a 500W PSU as some have suggested, but you do need a quality PSU, not a cheap one.

Good brands:
Antec
Enermax
CoolerMaster
Corsair
OCZ

This PSU would be my recommendation for your setup: http://lioncomputer.ir/index.php?product_id=1477

Yes. This is why I recommended the Huntkey X7. You'd understand the value if you can pay R1,388 for a 900W modularized PSU. It falls in the 850W price range of brands like Corsair, Cooler Master, Thermaltake and Antec, none of them being modularized. It looks very good too. Complies to 80+ standards with a Silver award. Not too shabby, I'd say. Makes me pissed that I paid R1,100 for my Gigabyte ODIN 720 about a year ago.

 

[soshy]

I think i better stick with 635 , you know why green is Good here ? because ELECTRICITY in here is DC & Green is Most Compatible Option , it is Designed for DC .

 

[soshy]

ANyone here uses Green Power , all i worry about IS

Some of you say 535 is Enough to Handle my Hardwares ( even at Full load )
but some of you say it Cant handle it AT FULL LOAD ! whats going on ?
