I need to upgrade my PSU here and have some general questions.
I am upgrading from a 500 enhance PSU which has served me well.
However, I am upgrading because I am running into heat issues on my system and have decided on investing in a better case, fans etc. On top of that, I will be updating my GPU to a much better card here in the near future.
With that in mind, my rig:
ASRock Extreme3
AMD 945 Quad core 3.0gz, will be OC'd shortly
8gigs DDR3 1600 memory
(2) 7200 SATA Drive
(1) 10,000 SATA Drive
Would like to add a SSD card for my OS in the near future
GTX 260
With the above mentioned, I am looking at buying either the Antec 1200 v3 case or the coolermaster HAF X case (unless someone has a better recommendation).
With all that, I would like to upgrade my PSU to something bigger.
I have been looking at Corsair and Antec PSU and a few things I wanted to ask:
PSU Comparison
Looking at the above, they range from 650-750. I was leaning towards the 750 range so I can have the extra room incase I run SLI or Crossfire.
What I was curious about was the +12v Rails: Corsair has only 1 rail? Where antec has multiple. I was under the impression that more than one rail was better?
That was really it.
Anyone have any recommendations on the above PSU'?
Thanks.
