QUOTE(lehteck @ May 17 2008, 10:17 PM) Superb 720W? yes, Superb 720W Should be ok lo~  actually, i dunt understand why certain people said that 700++ or 800++ is like a waste..should get 550W or at least 600W is enough..can anyone of u can make me clear for this 'problem'..if the problem is the electric bill, it is not a big problem..hee~ This post has been edited by d2z: May 17 2008, 10:59 PM |

QUOTE(campsol2k @ May 18 2008, 06:42 PM) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « its a bit of waste because you're not fully utilize the PSU for your current specs. In the future there will be better PSU (ie better standards, more efficient, etc). If u have future plans going on(at the moment you build your new PC) let say u want crossfire/SLI, add few HDD, etc or simply u want to use it for next PC then its worth buying it. |

QUOTE(Kataro @ May 21 2008, 09:08 AM) a) Thepsu output is depend on the usage, if your hardware need 500W, then it will output 500W...but it will draw more than 500W from the TNB there as PSU efficiency is not 100%... so, if use 500W and 610W or 1kW PSU, the electric bill same aa..?b) Dunno, wait for other to help you.   |

proc : Q8300 PSU come with casing : powerlogic (max power 450W and real/true power 250W) graphic card : 3870hd 512mb ddr4 4gb ram.. the question is, does the power supply, supplied enough power to run this rig..?? because when play games, the performance is really poor.. ps: the game that we try is Juiced2.. |
