eXtreme Power Supply Calculator update

[Slater]

weird that my system specs dropdown thing isnt coming up.

anyway, ive got athlon x2 +3800, 2 gigs ddr400, radeon xpress200 mobo, x1800xt (625/750)overclocked to 675/792, a dvd burner, 160 gig segate barracuda drive and a 550 watt coolmax psu which is currently dieing.

upgrades coming in are the xpress 3200 mobo (for true crossfire and a far superior 939 mobo) and 700 watt ocz psu for when i get my second ati card.

Click the "Show system specs" checkbox

I like people who register just to spam a linky to their site/program/etc....

If you feel this way please contact the administrator to remove or block this topic and I will stop posting calculator updates on tech Power Up forum.

Wow!!!

Mu current setup needs about 360W but my dream machine would need 2620W. OMG!!

 

[drade]

Says i need about 479w, Im all set

 

[Grings]

267W , i dont think so somehow

 

[DudesBoss]

says i require 535 watts, which is about right , lucky i got a thermaltake 700watt psu.

 

[Demos_sav]

Says I need 434W but I only have 400W PSU.How is that possible ?

It's time for me to upgrade.

 

[Mussels]

251W on my vista test rig, when it has a 520W powerstream awesome.

You are fine. The calculator produces results based on ALL components running at 100%, which is a bit overhead

 

[sampofin]

843w

843w and i just bought be quiet dark power pro 750w
shit happens

 

[tweakboy]

Very good info ,, thanks for all the detail buddz,

 

[Mussels]

Just so taht people know, the numbers from the calculator are peak output, which means everything at 100% (which never really happens, closest is when you first power the PC on)

So if it says your PC needs 434W and you have 400W, it would run fine, but you'd possibly hit cold boot issues with the PC not wanting to turn on over the next 12 months as the PSU weakens a bit.

I made the computer that i planned on eventually building at it said i needed 1024 watts. Not good considering i was planning on using a 700 watt OCZ ps


Apparently with just a E6300 and a mother i'm using 236 watts? seems a littl steep

 

[WarEagleAU]

321W for me. My 600W Extreme Power by Cooler Master has me covered.

You probably selected a dual CPU setup
E6300 is a single dual core CPU.

 

[magibeg]

Ah thanks man, my bad.

my beloved athlon 3000+ am2 is still missing
aswell the 3200+

Have no idea how did I miss them... Too many things to take care of

Athlon 64 3000+ Orleans
Athlon 64 3200+ Orleans

and

Athlon 64 3500+ Lima
Athlon 64 3800+ Lima

will be added with next update.

 

[Joshmcmillan]

They need to add the 65W Athlon X2 series to there site.

Cool tool - says I need 425W. Doesn't mention the peak rail loads (needed for the X1900XTX, from what I understand).

Heh, I ran this w/ my buddy Mike @ his place the other nite, & we calc'd my system (he'd seen it earlier that day/yesterday, because he wanted to compare my case (Antec SuperLanBoy) to one he just got that's on its way UPS, a Lian Li)... & it came up:

429 watts MAX power consumption & ALL parts @ FULL LOAD!



* I happen to run an ANTEC SmartPower 2.0 500 watt unit in this bear too... I have a 71 watt 'leeway'...

(IMO, I designed fairly well on this note of POWER!)

This site's kind of cool because you can ALTER LOADS/PEAKS/LOWS on all your peripherals, fans, hdd's, floppies, Cd/Dvd, vidcard YOU NAME IT (and very current, as JoshMcMillan notes above, just updated!).

* Wild stuff, good site, very cool post!

APK

P.S.=> We've been checking out power supplies for him is why... he has his eye on a HIPER unit, a Thermaltake unit, a Corsair unit, & a Mushkin unit... model #'s elude me, but all HOT stuff (over 550 watt range, into 650, dual to quad rails setups, Power Factor Correction & Sag/Spike protection, capacitor types used, fan types used, heatsink types used, & also some w/ heatpipes (ZALMAN) & I am getting a regular "re-education" via his research in an area of PC hardware I am NOT the strongest in, in Power Supplies!)... apk

 

[psychomage343]

it says i need 638watts??? odd i've got an fsp500 watt rated at 460 continuous and have been rock solid stable for like a year now, and i just added 6 hi perf 120mm fans to the mix with leds? i'm not sure that's accurate

scratch that it's now 338 for my rig, i added 2 pcix16 cards cause i can't read engrish so that's good i got 500 or 460 available total which is good.

gfx overclock would be a good add aswell

 

[mnemonik23]

Joshmcmillan, these are the X2s that consumes 65W and are listed in the calculator:

AMD Athlon 64 X2 4000+ HE 2000 MHz AM2 Windsor
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4000+ 2000 MHz AM2 Brisbane
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ HE 2200 MHz AM2 Windsor
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ HE 2200 MHz AM2 Windsor
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ 2200 MHz AM2 Brisbane
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ HE 2400 MHz AM2 Windsor
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+ HE 2400 MHz AM2 Windsor
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+ 2400 MHz AM2 Brisbane
AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ 2600 MHz AM2 Brisbane

Are you referring to any other processors that are not listed? If so, please let me know which exactly CPUs so I can check them out.

gfx overclock would be a good add aswell

It is hard to create a generic OC engine for all video cards since they use different rails: 12v, 3.3v and 5v. If you guys have any ideas - let's discuss it! I certainly will dedicate more time for video cards OC research in the nearest future.

 

[Joshmcmillan]

You need to add:

AM2 Athlon 64 X2 65W : 3800
