bklixuz Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 Good to hear. keep us posted. to update this. im waiting for an evga gtx 570 to arrive. my question is will either of these psu's going to be enough for the card? http://pcx.com.ph/components/power-supplies/thermaltake-smart-530w-80-1665.html http://pcx.com.ph/components/power-supplies/silverstone-st60f-600w.html will sli the card when games will be more demanding than a gtx570 but for now any of those two? i can also pick up this http://pcx.com.ph/components/power-supplies/corsair-tx-750w-80.html but will take probably a month to come up for a budget for it. my board is an asus f1a55-m lx amd a6-3500 just for the meantime two 4gb kingston hyper x 500gb seagate barracuda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandreadstriker Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 CMIIW but the A75/55 boards doesn't support SLI so you'll have to change your rig entirely to do SLI. As for the PSU, if you're gonna SLI Two GTX570s, I'd recommend getting a 850W PSU. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the PSU, if you're gonna SLI Two GTX570s, I'd recommend getting a 850W PSU. Besides, games are made so that they can run on a crappy xbox 360 so the system requirements curve for games along the recent years has been somewhat logarithmic. Until the next xbox comes out games will not get any more demanding and even my 2 year old gtx 470 slices through any games on ultra at 1920x1080.

bklixuz Posted April 9, 2012 Posted April 9, 2012 i see.. but for now i dont have plans yet to SLI the cards. maybe a couple of years from now but at that tym 850w to 1000w psu's might be cheaper and boards that supports SLI's.

I would say to go with the silver stone PSU. The thing is that SLI is kind of a rarity these days. So many single cards can play most games well, that SLI is becoming overkill. Not to mention that with all the new or upcoming die shrinks, PCs are using less energy. So if you run into a bunch of money down the road, don't buy a second, old, and power hungry card, just upgrade to a power efficient mega fast card.

bklixuz Posted April 9, 2012 Posted April 9, 2012 unfortunalety they the shop that im buying has no stock of the thermaltake smart 630w. they have the silver stone 600w though and a thermaltake smart 730w. so i grab the 730w instead. price difference was on the silverstone was only $10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandreadstriker Posted April 9, 2012 Posted April 9, 2012 Thermaltake PSU? I should've advice you to stay away from Thermaltake PSUs. Hope it doesn't die quickly.. Honestly, Thermaltake build are crap IMHO. Haven't heard nor experienced good things with their PSUs.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bklixuz Posted April 9, 2012 Posted April 9, 2012 oh? well it will be tomorrow that i will pay for the item coz its in another state and its going to be shipped. can you select me which in their list of PSU's are better than the thermaltake? here is their site http://pcx.com.ph/components/power-supplies.html?limit=30 my budget is only up to P5,000 i cannot go any higher than that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sword_fish Posted April 9, 2012 Posted April 9, 2012 (edited) ditch that store bro, browse here and here cause they have much more to offer, and you can save +- hundred bucks somehow. note the price difference with the corsair TX750M, you cant go wrong with the Antec TP750 @ PHP 4,500 either.
