Custom Build Power Supply Help


Recommended Posts

Hey Nexus

 

If you remember a topic I post few weeks ago on the same board about my GPU temperatures with an ACE Value Black Edition 600W PSU, the worst has happened. You were right... ah well.

My power supply went and blew up, lucky me. This is the last time I buy anything 'ACE', their PSU's are a pile of s***. So now, obviously, assuming that my motherboard, GPU, Phenom II 1045T and the rest of my components aren't too damaged from it surging like that, I have to buy a new PSU. Heres my Speccy:

The XFX Radeon HD 6870 has 2 slots for 6 pin PCI-express cables from the power supply, the old ACE PSU only had one so I had an adapter running from another power supply to run it. Now that's gone, I'm getting a good one. I've waited two years to build that PC so I can wait a little longer, I was thinking this:

 

Corsair Gaming Series GS600

 

What do you guys think, what would be the best PSU to run my setup?

 

Thank you :)

I use Corsairs with my systems and I have no complaints, they are not cheap but you do get what you pay for. Just make sure that you have enough wattage, I tend to get more than I need and the modular units are a plus.
