Is this PSU good for this rig? Cooler Mastes Silent Pro M600 Silent Pro M600 - Cooler Master - Leading Provider of Computer Case | Cooler | Power Supply Phenom x6 1090T @ 3.6Ghz 4GB DDR3 Kingston x2 MOTHER GIGABYTE GA-970A-UD3 Zotac GTX560ti HDD 1TB SATA II Thx.:ph34r: |

I haven't seen a review that dismantled or properly tested that power supply like Hardware Secrets or JohnnyGuru, so I can't recommend that CoolerMaster. I haven't heard of them blowing up yet, but you can get some units that did go through good reviews for the same price. Assuming some not-insane overclocks, your actual power consumption should be 260W (stock) -370W (overclock with voltage bump) so you are shopping in the right wattage range to give you some headroom (500-600W). Take a look at the following: Newegg.ca - SeaSonic S12II 520 Bronze 520W ATX12V V2.3 / EPS 12V V2.91 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC Power Supply Antec High Current Gamer 620W 48A 24PIN ATX12V V2.3 Active PFC 80 Plus Bronze Power Supply 135mm Fan - Antec - HCG-620 Depending on sales, you may be able to get a Corsair 80+ Bronze unit around the price of that CoolerMaster as well. |
I will testify against Coolermaster power-supplies ! I fell victim to it when I bought it and exploded several months ago taking some hardware with it. I say go quality when it comes to power-supplies like the ones from Seasonic, XFX, Corsair, Antec. Also don't buy Thermaltake power-supplies either I fell victim to that too. |
