You're on pretty much the best review website for graphics cards and you don't even check it.. *facepalm*
http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Sapphire/R9_290X_Tri-X_OC/22.html
• MAX usage R9 290X: 316 W
• Average usage R9 290X in game: 221 W

http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/2013/06/01/intel-core-i7-4770k-cpu-review/7 (even the K version)
• Rest of system at max load: 137W (from the wallsocket, so you'd still have to calculate the efficiency of the psu to be exact, but lets keep it at 137)

So if you stresstest your whole system, you're going to do 316~ + 137~ = 450~ W at Max. system load (which you don't even get unless you want to stresstest both gpu & cpu at same time for some weird reason)
While gaming it's more like 220 + 110 = 330~ W on average while gaming

So a good 520-600W PSU to get best efficiency while gaming.
e.g. Seasonic S12II-Bronze 520W, Seasonic M12II Evo 520W, ... or gold rated: Cooler Master VS V550S, Seasonic S12G 550W, ...

Good power supplies like those can handle their Wattage 24/7 without breaking a sweat.
I've ran 2x overclocked gtx 670's and overclocked i5 3570k on my xfx pro 650w very easily..

heh you forgot to add the hdd, ram and the optical disk drive. heh so 330 ( gpu + cpu ) + 870 = 1200Watt. THIS GUY WAS RIGHT HAHAHHAHAHA YOU NEED 1200 WATT otherwise forget it. PC wont even turn on XD ah love people like this so we can take a piss out of them. XD

Do not need a power plant to a pole! 1200W..??

very horrible, and not need as much power source so horrible organization worst case I've ever seen

lol fella tell me more about W requirements on GPU and CPU

if you don't know so please better stay quiet, and order from ebay "Monitor Power Meter Electricity" only £10 and you will be surprised...

mikeangs2004 said:
Bull, just the GPU alone require 750W

I can tell you more. see the system requirements:

Requirements, as in, "This is what we think you'll need for a PSU to safely drive the entire computer." ...which is quite a general and vague statement.

I can fully overclock everything my my machine and I won't draw more than 500 watts. Not only do I have a CPU consumes more power than yours, I have two GPUs.

How do I know this you ask? I have kill-a-watt built into my UPS, not fully overclocked and under full load won't break 430 watts.

Stop acting like you know everything because you know how to read a page on the internet. Get with the program and quit it with the arrogance. Not only did you misunderstand what you read, you're acting like you know everything.

By the way, your cable management blows. It looks like you rushed it and didn't take your time, much like how you rushed to a bad conclusion about power requirements. Your ignorance is showing... I'll actually vote when you clean up your machine and your attitude.

zo0lykas · Sep 19, 2014

you are so stupid

1 you don't have this card
2 if you would anyway you don't need 1200

1 I have GPU 2x r9 290 + CPU 9370 and I uploaded couple pictures for you newbi.

First picture is computer stand by. when u browsing, watching movies ( 120-140W )

Second picture when I played World of Tanks ( 300-340W )

And last picture is Valley Benchmakr running ( 470-660W )

Don't forget that this is from the wall socket so these numbers are more than you actually need. (because of the efficiency of your power supply at certain Wattages)

You are the one that's stupid because you can't prove I don't have this card. This tells me something is wrong is with you. Also you are the one that's stupid because you assume I should buy only what I need atm and also not considering resale value.
