Hyy
After getting a new GPU (radeon hd6850 OC which have 2 6 pin i got a new psu which was a reeeealy bad one and fired my MB
So today i got a new MB (esonic h61fdl2) and a new 550w psu) and am afraid of getting the same problem as the first one
The new psu is called : icon ML550W with only 4 A current on the input
At the output :
3.3v 21A
5v 15A
+12V1 11A (max)
+12V2 8A (max)
-12V 0.3 A
-5v 0.5A
+5Vsb 2.5A
And my config is :
I3 3220 /8gb RAM (1 1333 and the other 1600) / radeon HD6850 1GB GDDR5 OC (one with 2 6pin) and a 250 hdd and a DVD
Still ddnt power it up so plz give me some good news plz :p Thanks :)
 
Sorry to say this but those PSU specs are horrible. Pay close attention to the Amps on the +12V rails. Your CPU and GPU will be drawing power from the +12V rails.

That PSU has 2x +12V rails, so..

Amps x Volts = Watts

11A x 12V1 = 132W
8A x 12V2 = 96W
Total Watts to main components = 228W

You got yourself a 228W power supply. A good power supply will have the total watts advertised available on the +12V rails.

Power Supply: Corsair - CX (2017) 650W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($49.89 @ OutletPC)

This power supply above has 648W available on the +12V rail.

Output - +3.3V@25A, +5V@25A, +12V@54A, -12V@0.8A, +5VSB@3A

you did not learn the first time?

playing the garbage psu game again already...



it may or may not blow up

you are playing russian roulette

do you want to pull the trigger?

 


I would not use that PSU with the HD 6850. If you can return it do so. But either way, get yourself a good power supply like the one I posted above with plenty of Amps on the +12V rail.

no


cooler master units are generally poor to mediocre, the only good models are the V series


get yourself something like a corsair cx 550w ( the newer black and white version )

or an antec HCG 520w, or a seasonic S12II 520w unit

But why they r not Good enough? Cuz as the watt calculators Said that my config need 298 w and they recomended a 400 w
So u saying that a 450 or 500 rnt enough?

Multirail doesn’t work like that, you cannot simply add the capacity of each rail. The max 12v load would be even less.

It isn’t true the only good cooler master units are the V series. The MasterWatt is quite decent, the cooler master gm is ok, and the cooler master MWE has DC-DC, but not reviews yet.

But the cooler master elite isn’t good at all.

You can upload the pictures to imgur and send the link here. Not sure if there’s an easier way on this website.
