Aloha all,
I have been a wanabee builder for some time...not enough time to really get into building PC's but just enough to have a custom machine. About the extent of my PC knowledge...
anway, I am going to buy a new power supply, I have crappy CX 500 that I believe is hindering my ancient beast. It was a replacement for the 450 that burnt out, but that was a higher quality psu with no issues performance wise, until it died after years of abuse. So I am on the hunt...
My setup is this:
-AMD Athalon FX 60
-A8n32 SLI
-4gb OCZ RAM
-2 PCI-E 7900 GTX 512mb graphics cards
-CX 500
-Win 7
I don't know a lot about PSU's, and I see the ""SeaSonic X Series X650 Gold ((SS-650KM Active PFC F3)) 650W ATX12V V2.3/EPS 12V V2.91 SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS GOLD""
on new egg for $100. It this a good fit for my machine?
I googled this combo and can not find anything MODERN about a good PSU for what I have.
TIA
