Question Focus plus gold vs prime ultra gold

[anjris]

Hi

Does anybody know the exact difference between Sea-sonic Focus plus gold vs prime ultra gold?

Why Prime ultra gold is costlier than Focus plus gold?

If you dont plan to overclock i would say 750W is enough. A very good PSU like prime would have no problem running everything overclocked at 750W, but it would be 100% utilization at max load[considering also that you might want 2 ssd, 2 hdd, some fans, or aio]

But i have i5 9600k doing overclock to 5ghz
Rtx 2080 overclock to 1800 mhz.
2 ssd
1 hdd
6 140mm fan
2 120mm fan
Aorus master mobo
8gbx2 3200mhz ram

i guess 750 will run at 90% overload

Seasonic has some pretty good calculator that will check your wattage.
You will be fine with 650 W.

Psu calculators can lie a little, but understand that are a few more elements. For example when u are reading article about power comsumption, we have to know, that for example they measure in every test power comsumption from the wall, not including efficiency of power supply, which has to produce more power. Also what is important? Often in almost every reviews are various games, but know, that every single game could different affect on ur PC. For example gta 5/bf5 draws more current than kingdom come... And last thing sharp, short spikes, because there are various gpus with various mosfet/caps, platform etc. U can find this in reviews tomshardware 😌
