i dont live in metro cities so the prices are even higher than the online shops, so what about gainward gtx660ti and corsair cx500watt?

gainward after sale service is not good (if iam not wrong)

no to cx series,instead get gs 500w or seasonic one is best

A

gtx 660ti is for 21k in metro city so the 3k you can use to get to the nearest metro city.

ya so iam buying that it has 6+2 pin power connectors na?

and which gtx 660ti? i want to buy around 21k .

V

yeah sure gainward is fine if its 20k less the merrier rest 4k for party

A

that seasonic psu has only one 6+2 pic power connectors but i think gtx 660ti requires 2 of them .

A molex-to-6 pin connector is supplied with the card.

but its not safe to use molex connectors, so i think i should go with corsair cx 500 watt?

No it is perfectly safe if the PSU can provide enough power. It is not recommended for local cheap PSU.

Welcome to Seasonic USA

tell me is it having enough power for gtx 660ti ?

> Its perfectly safe.

> Seasonic S12 II 520W is better.

Seasonic SS12II 520 can easily handle GTX 660Ti. Also instead of getting Gainward card, get this baby: *smcinternational.in/index.php?route=product/product&path=108_125_159&product_id=453

in the official website its said that it has one 6 pin and one 6/8 pin what does it mean?

It means that it has two PCIe connectors: one with 6 pins, and other can be used as 6 pin as well as 8 pin.; just like there are 4+4 CPU connectors.
