QUOTE(chocobo7779 @ Dec 16 2013, 10:02 AM) 7950? ya,its full load. No wonder la... You should get a quality unit... Most likely the unit is operating at nearly full load...  The unit may not be able to deliver the rated power at rated temperatures...  I'm surprised that your unit still survives... My power supply is dead quiet and runs very cool though... It's a Seasonic Gold rated unit BTW... and i am tight budget,and saw the requirement for 7950 is 500w. since i dont have many hdd or fan so i bought this unit. do i need to get good brand or high watt psu to solve this problem ? planning to get corsair cx500 This post has been edited by wen9x88: Dec 16 2013, 10:07 AM |

QUOTE(chocobo7779 @ Dec 16 2013, 10:57 AM) Not much really... There's the Antec VP550 Strictly, but unfortunately no distributor carry them anymore... i am using cooler master 550w,this is not cap ayam and enough watt but why i change to antec vp550,Super Flower Golden Green HX 500W ,corsair cx 500 can solve the heat problem ? The Super Flower unit is better though, and don't skimp on the PSU as this is the 'heart' of your system unit... If it fails and the unit is a cap ayam unit, then your hardware may risk damage... |
