How much watts of PSU will I need ?

bhaskar15 · Dec 24, 2006, 08:35 AM

My specs are shown on the left, will a 450W psu give enough power to run these ? I bought the Raidmax Saggita case, which has 450 W PSU included in it. Will it be enough to power my comp. I haven't turned it on yet, had to go for some holidays.

DOM · Dec 24, 2006, 08:40 AM

well mostly every one says not to use PSU's that come in cases so you want to run it at 3.5GHz or is it running at those speed already?

bhaskar15 · Dec 24, 2006, 08:43 AM

It is overclocked already when I had my previous, case, then changed my HD, and it's now 3.5ghz oc'd, but i haven't run it yet.

DOM · Dec 24, 2006, 08:48 AM

well this is it right http://www.newegg.com/Product/Custra...82E16811156180 there some ppl that say it is a bad PSU and anyways its better to have a 8-pin CPU power Connector or 4+4-pin for stability i learned that first hand cuz your mobo has an 8-pin right ?

bhaskar15 · Dec 24, 2006, 09:03 AM

ya that is it, but I just wanna know that does the 450W psu have enough power to run my current configuration ?

DOM · Dec 24, 2006, 09:07 AM

it should, but i wouldnt want to take the chance of it going bad and killing you stuff with it.

and it would be alot better to have that 8-pin for the cpu cuz its one for each core

are you willing to get a new PSU? if so for how much?

bhaskar15 · Dec 24, 2006, 09:09 AM

not much actually, is there any other case just as beautiful and elegant as Saggita, but with a better psu at the near price ?
Its looks were the factors which caught my eye.

DOM · Dec 24, 2006, 09:14 AM

but your from India right cuz newegg is for only the US where do you buy your stuff online then it would be easier to help

its a nice case

bhaskar15 · Dec 24, 2006, 09:15 AM

I just need the name i'll order it from smwhere else.

bhaskar15 · Dec 24, 2006, 09:22 AM

Thsi one looks good too, but it foes not have a psu.

DOM · Dec 24, 2006, 09:31 AM

how much and you spend on a PSU and Case

bhaskar15 · Dec 24, 2006, 09:32 AM

almost near the price of saggita...

DOM · Dec 24, 2006, 09:43 AM

75 bucks

where did you get the money for that 6700 and didnt think of a good PSU

do you even got any of that stuff in your system specs cuz i thought you where looking at that case and you have it in your specs

and your 15 ??

you dont

your just lieing are'nt you

bhaskar15 · Dec 24, 2006, 09:46 AM

No, i'm not lying, but i am 15, after upgrading to this spec, I can't spend more, ya know. It was damn costly. And i have it NOW, and also I am running Vista on it.

bhaskar15 · Dec 24, 2006, 09:51 AM

I made a fixed budget on every component and then upgraded, that helped me in money matter, 'cause it was paid by my dad ya know. So, I just fixed 75bucks for the case, I didn't knew it needed more power. I was running E6400 for 5 months or so, and the other components were too old, except mobo, so I told my dad that my comp. was getting old besides of being a powerhouse. And thats how I got the money sonny. Any More questions, eh ? sry fr being impolite. Your words were ruder than expected...
Also I have written before that I have bought it before, but didn't run it. So i can write it in my spec right ?

DOM · Dec 24, 2006, 09:55 AM

you should of went with a 6600 if you wanted the L2 4MB and got a good PSU and Case and could of got the same Oc out of it

cuz i dont think your going to get a good PSU and Case for $75

bhaskar15 · Dec 24, 2006, 09:57 AM

haha not funny, atleast just tell me how much watt power will it need to power my rig, OK.

DOM · Dec 24, 2006, 09:57 AM

sorry didnt mean to be rud but why didnt you just keep your 6400 and upgrade your other stuff it would of been alot better "Sonny"

bhaskar15 · Dec 24, 2006, 09:58 AM

I sold it to compensete the costs, wand what would i do with two dual core processors and a single comp. ?

DOM · Dec 24, 2006, 09:59 AM

well it depends on if it has and 8pin and tig has a seasonic s12 430watt and was able to get a good oc on his 6300

bhaskar15 · Dec 24, 2006, 10:01 AM

i think i have currently E6700 @ 3.5 ghz..so how much will it need to run fine, i'll change the psu whatever it costs.....

why did you get two if you only needed one is my ? cuz a 6700 is not worth the extra $ if you can get a 6600 and get the same oc and if you kept the 6400 the 4MB L2 is not that much of a performance increase

well with he has his oc to over 3ghz 3.5 or 3.2 with that PSU

bhaskar15 · Dec 24, 2006, 10:17 AM

I wanted best performance and oc'in in my fixed budget so I wanted E6700, but it was'nt available 5 months before in India, so I went on with E6400 and decided to get E6700 when it would come to India. 1month before came to mycity's pc hardware retailer, exchanged it for E6400(give) and E6700 (get).Which saved me time and performance, E6400 ran fine on 450W at 2.6 ghz, very cool indeed. And when I switched to E6700, went on the winter holidays,to Hong Kong to see one of our relative who live there. Came back now, and 1 question will this run on 450W (E6700). If not what will it run good on ?

DOM · Dec 24, 2006, 10:26 AM

i just saw you have stock cooling thats not going to help get a good oc well
this should be good i got the 700W http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817341001 i like mine i got the 700W one cuz it wasnt that much more but the 600W should be more than anuf
