QUOTE(ToiletMaster @ Sep 27 2022, 02:51 PM) Hi guys, my rig is using the specs below. I've been handed down a 1080Ti and would like to ask whether if my current PSU can support it? I read online of mixed reviews on getting a better PSU before using it. To clarify further, there's no issues with my PC with the current specs at the moment. The Corsair VS is a very low end, group regulated unit so a replacement is definitely recommended Intel Core i7-4790| Asrock H97 Pro 4 | KINGSTON D3 PC1600 8GB x 3 | STRIX-GTX1070-O8G-GAMING | Samsung Evo 850 250GB | WD Blue Desktop 1TB 64M | Corsair vs550 PSU |

QUOTE(yellowflashdude @ May 14 2023, 12:24 PM) I currently have a 550w 80+ bronze psu. Planning to upgrade to a 4070 which doesn't draw more than 200w at load for gaming (based on benchmarking videos). Exact make and model of the PSU itself? https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-rtx-4070.c3924 Please advise whether Im being stupid or not over this?  A 4070 isn't a power demanding GPU, so a 550W unit is plenty sufficient provided that it's a quality unit |

QUOTE(babylon52281 @ Jun 30 2023, 09:16 AM) Dont look at the TDP on paper, real world measurement a 4070 "eats" nearly 50% more The transient power spikes of a 4070 isn't as much as you think: This not yet factored in transient spikes, and depending on which CPU & other components. Even a decent 13500 system will overload a 550W PSU once it PL2 turbo for 60 secs.  If you are only gaming a 550W unit is going to be fine for a 4070, as long as it's a quality unit QUOTE Even a decent 13500 system will overload a 550W PSU once it PL2 turbo for 60 secs. That depends on the load, as power consumption of modern CPUs in gaming is actually quite low (compared to the rated TDP), unless you are talking about very intensive, multithreaded workloads (like 3D work) This post has been edited by chocobo7779: Jul 1 2023, 10:56 AM |

QUOTE(YahooGmail @ Aug 16 2025, 10:27 AM) It suddenly blew up. I'm a bit dissappointed, i thought fsp is very reliable. Hydro G pro atx 3.0 is really a good balance in connectors. All brands, even good ones can have faulty units. My Cooler Master V650 V2 which was a Tier A+ unit ended up faulty within 1 month of use Eventually the retailer did a full refund |
