psu for my config: · DIGIT-ARC

what psu should i get for this
Amd phenom ii 955
Gigabyte m770t ud3p
Ati 5750 from sapphire
2 sata hdd
1 dvd rw
2x2gb kingston value ram
Confused btw this psu's

also concerned about there prices

FSP Saga II 500 Watts Rs :2678/-
FSP Blue Strom Pro 500 Watts Rs :3465/-
FSP Epsilon 80 PLUS 500 Watts Rs :4305/-

i just want to know which one will suffice.
i am liking the first one for its cost.

and what about zebronics 550watts psu

and how are zebronics cabinets.
Or i am better with cm 310 or 360.

Please give suggestion about the mobo also.
Will be going with 770 chipset.Until any strong reason

A

^ corsair vx550 for 4.7k- the best and future proof, for your rig.

if you into gaming, i will suggest you better of getting the HD5770.

PSU: Seasonic S12-II 380W. Corsair CX400W. else FSP Saga II 500W. all these PSU will cost almost same price.

Mobo: get something other. like 785G. 770G got no IGP. so if you get MSI 785GM E65 or Gigabyte GA-MA785GMT-UD2H or MSI 785G-E53. good options. or you may also instead consider Biostar TA790GX A3.

for cabby: look if you can find NZXT Gamma. Cm Elite 360 a good option as well. just is a bit small. but looks classy.

Most probably I will get Corsair CX400W or FSP Saga II 500W.
I don't understand why i should i get these mobo MSI 785GM E65 or Gigabyte GA-MA785GMT
i don't need igp. If these board you stated be better than 770tud3p then i can get msi 790gx g65.
What say .
And please conform that this psu's will be fine na there will be no future upgrade for my pc.

Go for corsair vx450. Its much more than enough for the 5750 and can power even a 5850.The vx550 will be an overkill for your system.

I will try for vx450 if my budget allow me

first of all change ur mobo plz
its quite outdated

and regarding 5750,corsair cx400W is enough

Now please tell me how is my configuration.Its exceeding my budget by 4k.
Any way to cut down prices.

well not too outdated but he may instead get a board based on 880G or 890GX instead.

get a little lower priced proccy like X4 630. get a higher graphics card like HD5770 or keep the HD5750. get Corsair CX400W. 1 500Gb HDD. & a good mobo, something like MSI 785GM E53. yes it got IGP but its just a accessory. you may never need it still its there & the 770 chipset quite old. also the giggy board priced more tha the MSI, i assume. both are ATX if i not wrong. so getting MSI better choice.

also this way u'll get a better balanced rig, rather than a rig having more CPU muscle & low graphics power.

What all i do is web surfing(tech forum sites) a little bit of programming, a little of linux stuff trying to get better.Getting into deep of everything related to technology.

And "phele computer kharab karna phir use theek karna"

So i am thinking of skipping the graphic card.As i don't play games at all.

And i don't think 890gx chipset will available here and if available it will be too costly.

Getting Msi G65 for sure.

then you should focus on a good processor
no need to invest in a graphic card

your system is badly out of balance.

1) powerful proccy
2) good mobo.
3) good cabby.
4) low amount of ram.
5) good HDD.

but bad graphics in compare to proccy. & you won't need Black Series HDD.

i'll just say, for the kind of work, X4 630 will be enough. its as futureproof as X4 955. just u'll need the extra horsepower of X4 955 if you into encoding stuff. & if you not OC, you simply wasting money.

i'll say get this:

Athlon II X4 630 ---> 5k
a good mobo which supports 140W proccy i.e. MSI 785GM E53 ---> 5.3k
4Gb DDR3 value ram ---> 5.5k
500Gb HDD. WDC Blue or Samsung F3 Eco ---> 2.2k
Sapphire HD5670 512Mb ---> 5.3k
a sub 2.5k PSU like FSP Saga II 400W or Giggy 460W or VIP 500W Gold ---> 2.3k
any cabby of your choice i.e. Gamma ---> 2k.

total: 22.3k. expect pay ~23.5k at most. & it is in balance now. what you say?

perfect combination
the mobo is MSI 785G E53 and not MSI 785GM E53

ya thanks. learnt by suggesting configs over the past month.

oops, oh yes its 785G-E53. damn, always tell 785GM-E65 so added that M. i think M stands for memory. as E65 got the sideport memory.

no, i think M stand for m-atx as 785G-E53, 785G-E65 are full atx while 785GM-E51, 785GM-E65, 785GM-P45 are m-atx.

yes, u rite. MSI 785G-E65? is there any board like that? not seen or heard. i feel theres only 785GM E65 & its mATX. no ATX E65 avl.

look here

oh, never know MSI got an full ATX E65. thanks.

i am totally confused

Tell me how is this msi 790gx g65

and why go for 785g chipset and not 790gx

I will be trying my hands on overclocking

hey saurabh, y so much confusion???? you came to my house and saw my rig.... isnt it good.... go with my config and get corsair vx 450w.... else remains the same....

for mobo get this: DFI LANPARTY BI 785G-M35. excellent mobo. & you missing a CPU cooler if you plan on OC.

Just tell me which chipset is better 790gx or 785g

Thats all this will decide my mobo.
please help me

this mobo isnt available in nehru place....

and you saurabh, as i said go with my config and get carsair vx450w.... 790gx chipset is better than 785g chipset.... and msi 790gx g65 is a really good buy
indeed....

Getting biostar mobo based on 890gx will crossfire it. rest remains same

saurabh_1e said:

Biostar got one 890GX based mobo named Biostar TA890GXE & its mATX with inly 1 Pcie X16 slot. how can you crossfire? however if you talking about Hybrid Crossfire, its not possible with midrange + IGP.

i'll say, get a cheaper 790GX mobo (or maybe 785G) + a descent cooler rather than a costly 790GX mobo & trying to push ur proccy clock higher & making it fry & later complaining here for your own faults.

@rahul, u own a Phenom II. have you tried OC it? if yes you'll know how hot it becomes. its stock cooler is one of best stock cooler i seen still it not sufficient.

hey sam.shab, saurabh isnt into gaming at all.... he is just a programming freak.... just give huim an overclockable cpu(like mine) and a board with decent igp (like mine or 890gx)....

I was talking of hybrid crossfire only.But i thought it be done using midrange like
5650 or 5750 or low range 5450 cards.

so i will not be going for crossfire just
tell me biostar 790gx or msi 790gx or biostar 890gx.

than why he after crossfire & all? if he only does programming, IGP + Athlon II X4 looks enough. ok if he wants buy Phenom II X4, its his decision. but also he told he'll OC. with stock cooler, it'll run hotter than Fermi cards. so he can get Biostar 890GX which is very cool looking & performing board. Phenom II (his choice). Corsair CX400W. enough to support any midlevel card. & a 1.5k cooler like Scythe Katata 3 to help him in OC. done. if cooler is not avl, get some other descent cooler. what u say?

Hybrid Crossfire is bakwaas. its almost useless. performance gain too low. an HD5670 will thrash any hybrid crossfire setup. so better get HD5670 rather than HD5570 or maybe HD5450 thinking about hybrids & all.

890GX = 790GX + Sata 3. thats all. biostar TA790GX A3+ is a good board. costing about 5.5k. but MSI's board is equally good. but both i feel are useless if you don't use Crossfire. Biostar 890GX cost 5.5k & is mATX. check it out. so conclusion, Biostar 890GX or MSI 790GX. its upto u.

leave all crossfire stuff .never going to cross fire .
For hsf cooler master n520
might buy sapphire 5770 in future (within 6 months)

now tell me which motherboard biostar 790gx or 890gx or msi 790gx.

+1. it seems right.... so phenom 2 955 and corsair vx450(saurabh's choice).... msi 790gx looks good.... me using it.... great board indeed.... but go with biostar.... sata 3 and costs 500 bucks less than mine.... what u say sham????

now confuse between micro-atx or full atx

saurabh is going with biostar 890gx bit its costing him 7k with vat.... any suggestipons???/

also is cm n520 better or katana would suffice????

(BOTH ARE SAURABH'S QUES....)

as saurabh already told, Bio* 890GX =7k. he'll get better IGP(it OC past 1.2Ghz) + Sata 3. MSI 790GX = Sata2 + full ATX + Crossfire (useless) + good IGP (he may OC to 900Mhz). & both will cost almost same. my vote Biostar cause it got Sata3. rest no other advantage over MSI.

& for PSU. i again telling, he not need VX450. CX400W or Seasonic 380W enough to handle HD5770.

saurabh_1e said:

oh man. more confusion? with ATX you will get a slightly less clumsy cpu interior. but that not matters much. also ATX are easy to work on.

(BOTH ARE SAURABH'S QUES....)

if he not needs the extra Pcie X 16 slot. no problem with mATX, he good to go.

about cooler i not sure. Katana3 looks good & is a really good cooler @ 1.6k. n520 cost more so will surely be better. how much? not sure about it as well. but availability may pose another big problem if he choose Katana3.

Thanks sham for all your help as 2nd pci-e slot is least of my concern going with biostar 890gx.But now price is my concern it should be less than 7k
psu will be corsair 400vx .

i am not going with some mid level graphic card like 5650 becuase If i feel that i require a graphic card after using my rig it will block all my ways of getting good graphic card like 5770 both financially and covering the pci-e slot.

hey lallu(saurabh).... y so much confusion???? go with biostar 890gx.... i know you will not be adding any graphics card in future.... also i read its reviews.... good ocable board indeed.... and sam, i wanna buy a cpu cooler costing below 3k.... any suggestions????

well than i feel 890GX best for him. 7k & sata3 + better OC graphics than 790GX's. & cooler? sorry rahul, no idea on the coolers man. i just have went through 1.5k coolers & found katana3 best choice. better than CM Hyper TX2/TX3's.

if you not into gaming why you running after graphics card? 890GX better than you expect for all your graphics word you'll ever do + a bit of gaming.

Haha! Corsair VX450W is Seasonic OEM. This means it is essentially a Seasonic unit.

Hope you know how good Seasonic is.

Cooler Master makes some of the crappiest power supply units (CM Extreme) as well as some of the pretty good ones (CM Silent/Real Power Pro). Corsair is Corsair. Seasonic, I would say, is only inferior to Corsair in terms of warranty. Its S12II Bronze (lower end) series has 3 year warranty, while the M12D series has 5 years (high end).

Nevertheless, at that price, I would buy it eyes closed.

It may not be able to deliver the 570W that some reviews say the VX450W can. But from what I can see, it can deliver upto 480W on 100% load with 84% efficiency.

480W? WOW. nice. one of many reasons for it getting famous even when it cost quite high compared to its competitors.

You forgot one thing: It also has the power to burn your rig.

not forgotten. actually missed to mention that i was telling it from manufacturers point of view.

and i don't think it got power to burn my rig. calculated my rig's power consumption using Cooler Master PSU Calculator: 127W if age of capacitors left as default. too low isn't?
