Hey,

Quick question here. I have been through 2 PSU's already. A no-name 500W and a SeaSonic 550W. Basically the SeaSonic does not boot up the system (it was second hand) so I put it out of it's missery. I have now found a PSU at an amazing price, I live in Romania. The PSU is the MS-Tech 950W.

These are my system's specs:

i7 4790k (Liquid Cooled)
Asus Hero 6 MOBO
GTX 970 Zotac (I AM BUYING THE PSU TO OC THE GPU)
8GB Ram

These are the PSU's specs:

+3.3 V 16A
+5 V 20A
+12 V1 32.7A
+12 V2 32.7A
+5 VSB 2A
-12 V 0.5A

Now the system needs 380W at factory settings. Please do not tell me that a Corsair 600W would be better, I know that but it's completely out of my budget. The question that I have is: can I OVERCLOCK the GPU (only, am not interested in the CPU) with the MS-Tech 950W PSU?

Thank you please respond as fast as you can!

Thanks!



 


Hey,

Don't get me wrong I love Corsair. If I could buy it I would 😀. I almost made the mistake of buying it and then re-read the reviews about the PSU and they saved my life. Such PSUs should just not exist, but sadly they do. I decided to go double my budget and get a Corsair TX750W at 55 Euro. With that much power I can get 2 Titans SLI. Thanks for the help guys!
