can Corsair VS650 650 Watt PSU handle this hardware

[yoyodolo]

hey guys,

I'm going to build a gaming pc with this configuration, but i have no idea about psu, i have selected Corsair VS650 650 Watt PSU, please help me to select right one.

My configuration is,

AMD FX-8350
Asus sabertooth 990fx
Redeon R9 270x (may crossfire)
WD caviar blue 1tb
Corsair Vengeance 8gb/16gb
Cooler master hyper 212x cooler
Dvd rw

you can suggest me better configuration in this price group

thanks in advanced

Yes the Corsair VS650 650W should handle it fine.

The VS series is a lower budget PSU and it will definitely not handle any CrossFire on the 770X. I would go with a 750W PSU if you plan to crossfire and overclock.

Yes it will.

It's a poor power supply with cheap capacitors , not a great match for a 8350 setup.

Here's a better option with all high quality Japanese caps.

R9 270X CF requires ideally 42Amps & a 700W PSU minimum

The Corsair VS 650W has 50 Amps on the 12v rail, so this is fine. However you require 4x 6 pin power connectors for 270X CF , this PSU only has 2.

Recommended PSU
XFX Pro/XXX 650W semi/modular 80+ Bronze (£63): http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-power-supply-p1650xxxb9

This PSU has 53 Amps on the 12v rail & 4x 6+2 pin power connectors. And is better quality, Seasonic OEM.
