definitely GTX 550 Ti.....

they are not comparable products, the 6670 is slower and a lot cheaper. something comparable would be a 5770/6770 which is on par with a 550ti and cheaper and uses less power.

So, which is better then, sapphire 6770 or sparkle GTX 550 Ti? because some say's my PSU is not that good.

The GTX550ti is slightly faster than the 6770.How much depends on the game.

What is the make/model of your PSU?

http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/geforce-gtx-550-ti-gf116-radeon-hd-5770,2892-17.html read the review, on average its as fast as a 5770 which is a lot cheaper and uses less power, the choice would be simple.

The benchmarks show the GTX550ti gaining better fps.Although your probably right.5-10fps doesn't justifiy and extra $30.

How many amps are on the +12v rail(s)?

 

[kensai23]

How many amps are on the +12v rail(s)?

+12v1 rail = 19 amps
+12v2 rail = 19 amps

but what i saw on youtube the +12v1 rail is inaccurate.

It says it can deliver 380watts.It should be fine to run a 6770 or a GTX550ti with the rest of your PC.Although because it isn't efficient at all (80% at 20% load=lol) I would suggest you upgrade it.
