Jayacom selling Gigabyte Odin GT 720W for RM269.

Guys, may I know what's the recommended PSU for SLI setup? Specifically speaking, for GTX560 TI?

That depends on your entire setup, but a 600W power supply e.g the Corsair GS 600 can support 2x GTX560 Ti fine in a high-end system as its 12V rail's very beefy smile.gif.

To be on the safe side, you should get a 650W power supply or perhaps a 700W power supply.

Thanks. smile.gif

How about overclocking?

Well then, the Corsair GS 600 will still hold. Guru3D's test of two GTX560 Ti in SLI mode had the power consumption going at 449W ( whole system ), and the system has an overclocked Intel i7 965.

Since your system is using an Intel Core i3 530 ( if I remember correctly ) processor, then the power consumption will definitely be less than that. The GS 600 can supply up to 576W of power on its 12V rail and that's still more than enough for your system even when it's overclocked. However, again, to be on the safe side you should consider going for a 650W / 700W power supply smile.gif

Thanks a bunch.

I think I'll get a Corsair GS 700W based on ur recommendation. smile.gif

EDIT:
Is Silverstone Strider Essential 700W good?
