Psu upgrade suggestions

[tudorcardei]

I decided to buy an new PSU, I want some recomandations:
I found an Super Flower Leadex II Gold 650W I want to know If it is qualitative and if not,recommend me Something better in the 100$-150$ orice range.

That Super Flower is a good PSU.

Can IT hold an rx 590 crossfire with an r7 1800x?

 

[bignastyid]

Depends on the rest of the system and f there is any OC going on but 650w is a bit on the small side for 2 590s. But I strongly suggest you look further into the dwindling support for crossfire before buying a 2nd 590.

 

[tiaan_strauss]

I dont recommend going crossfire. The 590's are also not competitively priced given the marginal performance increase over 580.

If you want more GPU power it is almost always better going with the most powerful single gpu you can afford.

If youre into amd you could look at a vega 56 for example, no need for vega 64 as the 56 when overclocked is very similar to a 64.

Id be looking at a 750W + PSU

Yeah, spending $250 on a second 590 is almost a waste. Unless you specifically have games you play that support it. Developers are dropping support, and the scaling is crappy now. So for the extra money spent it's not worth it. You would be much better off just buying one RX2070/Vega 64 if you want better FPS. And by that I mean better FPS in all games, not just ones that might support Xfire/SLI.

I don't think that are any 750W qualitative PSU's in a max budget of 150$

 

[tudorcardei]

nJoy Woden 80+ Gold, 750W is this an better choice?

Depends on where you are. In the US you can find many good 750w psus under $100 and some excellent units for under $150.

I am in Romania, but, what about this one, it's quite cheap : nJoy Woden 80+ Gold, 750W

God no. Your current 650w units has a better 12v rail than that njoy.

It's cheap because it's garbage.

 

[tudorcardei]

The only problem is that the most good PSU's are pretty expensive here in Romania

Then you should further question running crossfire.

 

[tudorcardei]

Ok, so, If i will get that 650W SuperFlower and If I switch to Nvidia, sell a few of my consoles I Could get into the rtx 2080 second hand price range, the only question is If that PSU can run it.

Yes that 650w Super Flower is more than enough for a RTX 2080.

 

[tiaan_strauss]

You dont have enough money for a decent power supply but youve got it for a $800 GPU

Somehow I think the 2080 might be a bit overkill for you personally .

Look for RX 580, GTX 1060, GTX 1070, GTX 1070Ti, GTX 1080, RTX 2060, RTX 2070 they will all work fine with a 650W PSU.

Hope this helps.
