What is your PSU wattage?

hat · Feb 21, 2009

Here is a basic poll to see how powerful the power supplies of TPU are.

This poll is ONLY for the power supply installed in your main rig. If you have a new power supply on the way for your main rig, vote for that instead of the one you currently have. For example I have a 550w power supply, but I won some contest somewhere and I'm getting the 1000w single-rail modular PSU from Silverstone I would vote 1000w+ (heh... I wish... that PSU is a beast).

The poll is already up

550W came with my first pre built PC. Been using it for over a year now, no problems.

hat · Feb 21, 2009

wow, lots of 1000w psus here.

RadeonX2 · Feb 21, 2009

yea, they also got a monster CPU and GFX. 1KW to the rescue

mc-dexter · Feb 21, 2009

Usually a 450w but it broke, so for now im running on a 350w. To be honest seem's smoother than what it was before (the running of the OS),

I do tend to not to be able to resume from the monitor turning itself off after the 15minutes, I'm only able not to resume when left for hour's without use. Here's the odd thing, If i want to keep my pc turned on for what ever reason, if i turn the monitor of manually n then come back to it a few hours later, it works perfectly... possibly a power issue?

rampage · Feb 21, 2009

i decided to get my 1000w psu as i know it would be the only thing that would be future proof, i hope to go i7 with 2 X or 3 X gtx's 280 some day

After a death of OCZ StealthXStream 600W, i'm using HEC Winpower 550W.

xu^ · Feb 21, 2009

OCZ Stealth x Stream 600w

r9 · Feb 21, 2009

I`m beating the theory of cheap PSU.
Hantol 635W 20eur 12V@22A only one rail. Quality PSU with this kind of specs usually is rated 300W.
And it is good enough to keep it stable 24/7 E5200@4.2GHz@1.42 and suicide run 4.8GHz@1.7V.

CDdude55 · Feb 21, 2009

OCZ Stealthxstreme 600w, has been very reliable for gaming and what not.

Blín D'ñero · Feb 21, 2009

Coolermaster Realpower 850M. Doing its job great. :cool:

MRCL · Feb 21, 2009

Thermaltake Toughpower 750W

will · Feb 21, 2009

I used to have an OCZ 600W gamexstream, RMA'd it and got a modxstream 900W back... probably more than double what I actually need but oh well!

A Cheese Danish · Feb 21, 2009

KingWin 600 Watt. Still doing a great job after 2 years

JrRacinFan · Feb 21, 2009

Whats the verdict if I run dual psu while benching? Just curious
