PSU Help

[Robopimp]

Hi guys. I just finished my 1st build but I would like to know how much extra stuff I can add with my PSU. Also, is there any software that can report me with the consumption of my system or parts ?

My system specs:

PSU - Corsair TX850 v2
MOBO - ASUS P8Z77-V Pro
CPU - i7 3770k
GPU - Gigabyte GTX 670 Windforce 3X
RAM - Corsair Vengance 4 x 4Gb @ 1866MHz
HDD - Seagate Barracuda 1Tb @ 7200rpm
CPU COOLING - Corsair Hydro H80
OPTICAL - ASUS BluRay Writer
EXTRA STUFF - 3 x USB 2.0, 1 x USB 3.0, 2 x eSATA, 2 x 120mm fans, 1 x 200mm fan

Thanks for the help

That Asus board has a power-meter built in, install the AI suite II software, then look under EPU.
It only lists CPU draw, but its free.

For total system draw, I use the software from my APC UPS that measures draw.

The other good one to use is something called a "Kill-a-watt" power meter. Its an external device that plugs into the wall, then you plug the PSU power cable into it. They're fairly cheap too.

Nice build too, by the way!

A lot of thanks for the quick reply. Will look that software u mentioned
By the way, if u dont have a liquid cooler for ur cpu, u should look the H80. So far is awesome, keeps my cpu between 31 & 33C during normal use, and I live in the Caribbean which is HOT XD

You're welcome, but I have a custom loop with a 240 radiator and swiftech apogee hd, blows everything else out of the water unless you have something more exotic.
