Nvidia recommends a 500w power supply for a GTX 560 Ti setup.

http://www.realhardtechx.com/index_archivos/Page362.htm

The Thermaltake Litepower 450w Black Edition is not a very good power supply. It's made by Solytech and only provides 324 watts and 27 amps on the 12v rail. A quality company would call that a 350w power supply.

So you may very well not be getting enough power. Even if it did run I would replace that power supply ASAP. Stick with Corsair, Seasonic, PC Power and Cooling, XFX, Silverstone, Enermax, OCZ and Antec for quality.

my power supply is still brand new i called my seller he accept to replace it with a thermal take lite power 600w would it help

 

[ahmadamsri]

i would replace it with a better psu after a while because i dont have much money to purchase more devices

Well since the Litepower 600w power supply is really a 500w power supply ( 480 watts / 40 amps on the 12v rail ) it would be better. It's still Solytech made junk though. It should power the card at least. If he will swap it out for free then go for it. You can at least see if that fixes the problem.

 

[ahmadamsri]

ok thanks for your help but what power supply you recommend for such a system and what does it cost

 

[Deleted member 217926]

Any of the brands I listed above. 500 watts is plenty. Honestly as long as it's a quality unit a 450w power supply would be fine. The problem is the Thermaltake is not a quality unit.

 

[ahmadamsri]

here is the website i purchased the psu from http://www.macrotronics.net/index.php/computer-parts-cases-power-supply-c-155_44_107?page=4&sort=2a&osCsid=f52411886e669df7f6c4c2485cdedbef
can u please choose for me the on that can operate my system i have Thermaltake Power Supply 450P Lite

 

[Deleted member 217926]

You really don't have much to choose from. To be honest the 600w Thermaltake is about your best bet. It will be plenty for your system and it's about the best one on that site. It just should be labeled a 500w power supply not 600 watts.

 

[ahmadamsri]

ok thanks ill try my best to get another brand in the near future

 

[ahmadamsri]

will it give enough power to overclock the cpu or the vga ?

 

[Hollerrr]

The question is, why didn't you do the proper research before buying?

As stated above the Thermaltake PSU's aren't very good at all, so I wouldn't even attempt an over clock on anything until you have a proper good quality PSU, with at least 650 watts or more. But that wattage is entirely dependent on your whole system build.

The ideal option would be a full refund on that Thermaltake PSU and buy a better one from a different site. And then, do some proper research before you do any overclocking.

 

[ahmadamsri]

first i thought that tt is the best i did not now that i asked few people and they said its good how much power is needed to overclock the vga and cpu and keep the psu not at full activity ?

 

[Deleted member 217926]

As I said above a quality 450w power supply is plenty for your system. Nvidia recommends a larger 500 watt unit because not all power supplies are good quality.

The 12v rail is the most important part of a power supply because in a modern computer that's what powers the main power hungry components like the CPU and GPU.

The Thermaltake 450w unit you have now has 324 watts and 27 amps on the 12v rail. For example of a high quality model the Antec High Current Gamer 400w model provides 360 watts and 30 amps on the 12v rail. So in reality the 400w Antec provides more power.

The 600 watt Thermaltake provides 480 watts and 40 amps on the 12v rail while the Antec HCG 520 watt model provides the same thing.

So you can see why I said they are mislabeled.


Hollerrr the OP is in Lebanon and his choices are very limited. The same is true in many parts of the world.

Go step by step and try this checklist.

[ahmadamsri]

i sent my computer to the seller and they checked it and seems to be the cpu 3770 lga 1155 ivy bridge is not compatible with board it seamed for me a little wierd
1 question which better intel Desktop Board DH67CL with the ivy bridge i7 3770 o intel deesktop board dp67bg with i7 2600Kand with the same rams vga etc

 

[Deleted member 217926]

The 3770 is about 7% faster than the 2600K clock for clock. However an H67 board and a 3770 non "K" will not overclock while a P67 wih a 2600K will overclock quite easily to ~4.5Ghz with a good aftermarket cooler. Of those 2 the 2600K is a better choice at least if you have a CPU cooler.

 

[ahmadamsri]

can this fan do thee job for overclcking easily http://www.macrotronics.net/product_info.php/thermaltake-cpu-fan-contact-21-p-2490 or u recommend a better 1

 

[Deleted member 217926]

It sure is hard to find anything on that website! The cooler I see that I would recommend is the Thermaltake Frio.

http://www.macrotronics.net/product_info.php/thermaltake-cpu-fan-frio-p-2492


Or at least this one. It has a 120mm fan at least.

[ahmadamsri]

ok thanks from where are you ?

 

[ahmadamsri]

such a system how much will it cost in your country

 

[Deleted member 217926]

I'm in the state of Georgia in the USA.

I have not built a computer with all new parts in years. I upgrade a few parts at a time. The next thing I will get is a new graphics card in a month or two when the GTX 660 is released.

I guess if I had to part it out based on how much each part cost when I bought it new. I order all my parts online usually from newegg.com.

i7 2600K - $310
Gigabyte P67A UD4 - $150
EVGA GTX 460 1GB - $230
8GB GSkill Ripjaws X DDR3 1600 - $230
OCZ Vertex 2 120GB - $240
Antec 1200 - $165
WD 640GB Black hard drives x 2 - $150
WD 250GB Blue hard drives x 2 - $120
Scythe Mugen 2 Rev B cooler - $40
Corsair 750TX - $75
Samsung 23in LED LCD 2ms 1920 x 1080 - $225
Logitech Z 2300 speakers - $100
Logitech G15 Keyboard - $75
Logitech MX 1100 mouse - $75
Asus DVD Burner - $20
Windows 7 Ultimate x64 - $165

A little over $2000

That is what I paid for each part when it was new not what I could get it for today. And most of my parts are at least a year and a half old. Some as much as 3 or 4 years old like my speakers and case.
