Re: PSU help
that's a good brand, but 850w may be more than you need, unless you plan on upgrading your video cards in the distant future, 750w would do you fine
other solid brands that many of us are rocking: Corsair, PC Power & Cooling, OCZ
what CPU are you running?

Re: PSU help
OCZ GamerXStream 700W is a good choice, but it's not modular.
Corsair HX620W is what I'm using in my new build and Apop has shown it can take some punishment. The key here is your budget really.

Re: PSU help
The problem is a little bit in the budget, since i live in Croatia this things are very expensive the TT W131RU is 220$.
The ocz is a great psu, yes but its not modular and i don't know if it has the longer cables for my case, and the tt WO131RU has all i need but is the power enough for my new pc since i would like to run two ATI HD4850 in crossfire.

Re: PSU help
I have the OCZ GameXStream 600W and it's good. Also look at the Corsair HX620. The HX520 should be able to power your rig fine, but HX620 will give you some headroom for future upgrades of your rig.
I would say go with the Corsair over the OCZ.

Re: PSU help
I am currently running the OCZ 600 as you can see by my sig. It powered the whole rig that's on my sig without any problems and no excess heat. The only reason I'm going to the Corsair on my new rig is to reduce the cable clutter in there.

Re: PSU help
Maybe someone here in the states could buy one for you and then ship it to you as a $20 gift so you don't have to pay high taxes on it.mromanovic wrote:The problem is a little bit in the budget, since i live in Croatia this things are very expensive the TT W131RU is 220$.
