You should stop making (not trying to sound snarky), bad choices with PSUs, Diablotek is extremely horrible (probably the cause of your problem before) and Thermaltake isn't that great.

Can you take that PSU back and get something better, or no?

Now i can see that Diablotek PSU`s are BAD after my ASUS M4N98TD EVO got FRIED!
and thermaltake psu i can not return because i own it for like a 3 months and i got it from BestBuy!
Now im waiting for Cooler Master 750W RS-750-ACAA-A1 PSU to be shipped form eBay seller!and i got it for 50$!

is Cooler Master 750W RS-750-ACAA-A1 good or bad?

thnx for your time and help!

Cooler Master isn't very good either. Only their new stuff is good. Like the Silent Pro and GX series. I found a review that made that RS seem good though (its a Real Power Pro?). So I guess it could work, it would deffinitely be better then your last two PSUs.

Honestly I would only stick with things from Corsair, Seasonic, PC Power and Cooling, XFX, Silverstone. But that one seems decent as long as it really is a "Real Power Pro".

Does bad PSU reflects on GPU Temps or no?
Because my GTX 470 goes up to 94C at 24C room temp on Furmark test and + side panel opened!

 

[Helltech]

Those cards run really hot, and while that is right on the edge it is still safe, I wouldn't let it go above 92c, but up to 95 is ok. What kind of case do you have?

Rosewill Destroyer with 2 top 120mm exhaust,1 front 120mm intake and 1 back 120mm exhaust(had 1 on the sidepanel but now i keep it open for better cooling).

 

[Helltech]

Do you honestly get better cooling with the panal off? That is an indication you have bad airflow somewhere.

to be honest i dont see any difference in temps with or without sidepanel off!and i really dont know whats wrong with that HIGH GPU Temps.

 

[Helltech]

Those cards are just really hot, there isn't much you can do, you can buy better fans though, but it might not be worth it obviously. You could install another intake near the graphics card, but that would require modding your case.

Look into the Corsair tx750 its cheap and a very solid PS been using it with my 6850 crossfire setup for awhile now and before with my 5870.

 

[emirhustler]

Ill try to do that tomorow because i have bunch of fans that i dont use!
Maybe ill try make something on sidepanel and install 250mm intake fan next to Graphics Card!

 

[emirhustler]

THNX for your help and time guys i really appreciate it!
Now im really tired and im going to sleep lol Good night!

I have a Thermaltake TR2 600W and is a 80% plus. Also has a 6pin+8pin conector. This PSU can handle by my knowledge a GTX 580 or a GTX 295 as most, and really can since it has 12V1=24V+12V2=32A = 56A máx output, good enough to handle any video card with a 6pin+8pin...I have a HD4890 at the moment, but i have no doubt that can handle any 6pin+8pin (75W+150W) card outthere.
But allways go for more power in this case. A TR2 750W is more than enough for none-SLI config, since it has 4x6pin and 2x8pin conector...Can handle GTX 560 SLI or HD 6870 Crossfire easyly by the way
