GTX 980 Ti Asus Strix psu

[ns____]

im planing to buy ..asus 980ti xfx 600 psu its enough for this card ?

How old is the PSU and what is the model for it? 600W may be enough but due to capacitor wear and tear, the power output will be significantly reduced. Add more wattage for headroom.

Mind sharing your full system's specs?

xfx 600w
8 gb ram ddr4 2100

also im deciding to take gtx 980ti strix its equal to 1060 ? or should i take 1060

GTX 980 Ti is much better than a GTX 1060. The GTX 980 Ti is basically equal to the GTX 1070.

I suppose you own the XFX XT series 600W. Definitely not a great power supply, but sufficient enough to handle a GTX 980 Ti.

I guess I made a mistake, hold on.

No, the XFX XT 600w won't work with a GTX 980 Ti.

I made a mistake earlier, the GTX 980 TI won't work with that power supply.

The XFX XT doesn't have the necessary 8+8 PCIE connectors.

Looks like the XFX XT 600 watts is truly junk.

hi sir im tottaly upset gpu not working i dont know y

Lol you bought that really fast.

As I fixed my post earlier I overlooked two things:

1) The XFX XT 600w, even though It's a large wattage PSU, only has 24 Amps on the +12V Rails and comes with only a 6 + 6+2 PCIe connector.
2) That particular GTX 980 Ti model requires 8+8, for the 980 Ti, that's pretty rare.

Either upgrade the power supply to a decent 600-650 watts model, or return the GTX 980 Ti and go for the GTX 1060.

s i have 8 +8 pin graphic card leds blinking but no display have any new ideas ? device manager showing two graphic basic vga and intel hd 630 but card not detected

Ah I see, it does have 8+8. Which product page did I look at yesterday? Really not sure anymore.

Installed newest Nvidia drivers to see if it recognises the GPU that way?

Have you plugged the display cable into the motherboard or the GPU?

This has arguably been my most chaotic attempt at solving someone elses issue.
