Reddit reviews EVGA 210-GQ-0750-V1 750 GQ, 80+ GOLD 750W, Semi Modular, EVGA ECO Mode, 5 Year Warranty, Power Supply, Black

No, you need a bigger PSU, both of those cards combined will suck at least 200W each under load, maybe even 225w.

Safe bet is to get a 750W PSU

https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Modular-Warranty-Supply-210-GQ-0750-V1/dp/B017HA3RGE/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1519098759&sr=8-4&keywords=750W+PSU

By the way, it's also $99.99 on Amazon.ca and MemoryExpress at its historical lowest ever price: CamelCamelCamel , PCPartPicker . However, only MemoryExpress and Newegg offers the $20 rebate.

Or you can get it from Mike's computer shop for $116 with free shipping. You know, if you want to avoid the MIR asshattery circus.

 

edit: Thanks for catching that. My mistake. Fixed the link. The GQ model is only available from Mike's via Amazon.

I have 2 of these for an eventual 6 1080ti's: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017ICWP82/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

and 6 of these for an eventual 6 1070's: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017HA3RGE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1

FWIW: I just have 3 1080ti's right now. RMA'ed the other 3 (can you believe this... the model I got was apparently widely known for having a noxious smell when at load. WTF?). Once I am confident of getting these up and mitigating the heat, I'm going to buy ther other 6 1070's.

I saw a couple deals on /r/buildapcsales for PSU's. I got EVGA 750 GQ, 80+ GOLD 750W for $60.71. Pretty sure it qualifies in that A+ tier. I would keep an eye out there. If you have time I'd wait a week or two until another deal pops up.

/u/MookisBoogis

I got this one for $60 on the 11th and am still waiting. Tracking it just says it's arriving tomorrow, which is what it's said for a few days. The details do say it has finally arrived in my state.

Amazon has good prices on EVGA power supplies. For this build, 650W will be more than enough. Most builds can run on 500W.. but really if it's a $6 difference then go for the 750W.

It has insanely good reviews too plus Prime shipping.

I'd probably get something like this to give you a lot of headroom

https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Modular-Warranty-Supply-210-GQ-0650-V1/dp/B017HA3RGE/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1497203717&sr=1-1&keywords=650w%2Bgold%2Bpower%2Bsupply&th=1

Get the EVGA GQ instead, it's better than the NEX and costs the same. I think the 750W version is 79.99 if you have Amazon Prime.

EVGA 750 GQ, 80+ GOLD 750W, Semi Modular, EVGA ECO Mode, 5 Year Warranty, Power Supply 210-GQ-0750-V1 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017HA3RGE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_YZCBDbKFCD3QB

I would consider replacing the i7-6700 with an i5-6600K ($75 less), then replacing the motherboard with an MSI Z170A SLI PLUS (same price as the B150 you chose). This will allow you to overclock the processor and utilize higher speed RAM (2133+ Mhz).

• Keep the cooler, if you already have it. If not, a Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO should suffice.
  
• Replace the power supply with this.
  
• Replace the memory with this. It's a compatibility thing.

Holy moses memory prices are still insane. Everything looks good but I'd get this power supply instead to give you more headroom. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017HA3RGE/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1. I'd also dial back your NVMe to 250GB and put that $115 towards an 8TB NAS drive in place of your WD drive since video editing and games are going to eat your drive. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M1BUBSO/ref=twister_B071JTHPZY?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

I'll help you out there for pricing.

• Ryzen 5 1600 - $85
  
  
• Gigabyte 1080Ti - $510
  
  
• Motherboard - $90
  
  
• Ram - $70
  
  
• SSD - $50
  
  
• HDD - $40
  
  
• PSU - $65
  
  
• Case - $60
  
  Add another $50 for kb/m.
  
  The parts listed above are similar to the ones you have and they provide a close estimate of what they go for. Totaled up, the sum is $1020. That figure might be on the higher side since some of the parts listed above are new.
  
  Hope this helps.

You went pretty big on everything else for only having 80 dollars to spare for a very important part of your build. Also, without knowing your cooler and other components, I can't tell exactly how many watts your PC will pull.

Those letters you're confused by normally denote model number and efficiency class (efficiency is rated in metals, going from bronze, silver, gold (golden standard), platinum, and titanium).

I found this on sale currently from amazon; https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017HA3RGE/?tag=pcpapi-20

It's a 750 watt gold rated power supply for $80 right now. If you're going to constrict your budget, this might be the best you'll get.

Any other Power Supply you would recommend that one is sold out

and corsair doesn't seem to want to load for me

does it matter if its semi or fully Modular

is this a good Replacement

Hey man hope this helps. If you order anything through these links, you'll be helping me as well.

Ah OK, so they should work then. Hopefully we can squeak by for now with what he has on that end. I was looking into the power supply you posted and noticed there is one on sale on Amazon for the same price but it looks to be higher wattage:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B017HA3RGE

Are there any disadvantages to going with one step up?

Good luck, the best thing about psu's is the fact that the work with everything plus 20 bucks is worth it for the efficiency (FYI, I believe there is another evga gold one for $79 which isnt fully modular though and not by the same division (superflower who are known for high quality) but a good deal none the less

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B017HA3RGE/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1484598545&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=750w+gold&dpPl=1&dpID=41FFjiWXQ7L&ref=plSrch

) although psu shouldnt be a priority, plus good call on the 1070

Which of these would you recommend?

https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B017HA3RGE/?tag=pcp0f-20

Or something else? I think $150 is my upper range of what I'm willing to spend on a new PSU

Personally I’d go with a better cooler. Perhaps a Noctua NH-D15 for 100 dollars. If that’s too expensive you could opt for a EVGA AIO . Also, I think if you cut down to a 2tb hard drive and 500gb ssd, you could afford a more powerful power supply. I’d recommend atleast 650-700 watts for this build, 600 is cutting it close IMO. Here is a 750w gold rated psu from EVGA, which is cheaper than the one you picked IIRC. Anyway, happy building!

What’s the difference in getting this psu

You do not have to buy these! Btw change the mobo to an E if you want Wi-Fi or buy a pci card, Wi-Fi usb dongle.

https://nz.pcpartpicker.com/ check out this website too. It is for new Zealand
Change the parts as you wish. The Amazon page is for new Zealand (I hope).

Every time you choose your parts just search in Google "power supply calculator" select "outervison". So that you know just how much wattage you will need :)

Is this a good PSU? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00K85X23O/
Edit: here is a different one I was thinking of https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017HA3RGE/

is this a good PSU for a 2080 ti and i7 9700k?

​

this power supply and this motherboard should do ya perfectly.

the sale is gone now, here it is https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Modular-Warranty-Supply-210-GQ-0750-V1/dp/B017HA3RGE/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1542782742&sr=8-3&keywords=evga+750+watt+gq

​

you can try the bq 750 watt though https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Bronze-Modular-Warranty-110-BQ-0750-V1/dp/B01FYDUDJ0/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1542782742&sr=8-4&keywords=evga+750+watt+gq

I will switch to the other SSD then, per your suggestion. I asked above, but will this PSU work http://www.amazon.com/dp/B017HA3RGE/?tag=pcpapi-20? Also, I didn't know about the jet code, what is it if I might ask?

would this be ok?

Is laud according to the reviews posted here. https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Modular-Warranty-Supply-210-GQ-0750-V1/dp/B017HA3RGE/

Budget: 200 bucks every other paycheck (bi-weekly)

I figured. Not bad for some games, MHW and new games, not so much...thinking not only a GPU upgrade, but a CPU upgrade as well.

Well, I already bought the cord... Im stubborn lol

PSU: [EVGA 750 GQ] (https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Modular-Warranty-Supply-210-GQ-0750-V1/dp/B017HA3RGE)

Is this EVGA 750W Gold PSU sufficient for a 9900K + RTX 2080 build? It seems that even with overclocking the peak wattage is around 650W not 750W (I think 750 is for 9900K + 2080 Ti).

This is the PSU I'm looking at getting. 80+ gold, 750w by EVGA. Also its semi modular so thats a plus

Are you keeping the HP motherboard? If you are keeping it, keep the PSU. Else, get this https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Modular-Crossfire-Warranty-210-GQ-0750-V1/dp/B017HA3RGE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1466054445&sr=8-1&keywords=750+gq.

Thanks for the advice! I don't personally care about the ram color, so I probably will get cheaper ram.

What would the 80+gold evga do better? I don't understand what the difference is, so I went with a popular model from other builds

EDIT

Swapped out the ram with http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Vengeance-3200MHz-PC4-25600-Memory/dp/B0143UM4TC?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017HA3RGE/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_U_x_ExcuDbZCADYFB

Could anyone tell me if this power supply is fine for the proposed components below:

-Ryzen 5 3600

-212 Cooler Master

-some 16GB 3200mhz 8gbx2(haven't decided)

-RTX 2060S/2070S

-ASUS X570 TUF MB

-two SSDs(probably one M2 and a 2.5")

-a couple fans, maybe RGB.

Plans to do some mild-moderate overclocking.

I think it should be good it terms of power output but I haven't done enough research to know if the semi-modular design would affect my potential build.

Thanks!

I'd just forgo the cooler and use the stock cooler (if you really want to overclock, consider a Dark Rock (pro) 4 or a similar cooler), get a 1TB SSD instead of the 1TB SSHD + 128GB SSD, and a cheaper PSU, backordered at Amazon right now.

So not this one either?

This is a little higher watt, but in budget and tier 1 quality. EVGA 750 GQ 80 Plus Gold, 750W

150 bucks is a lot of money for just a PSU.

This psu will easily last 5 years.

80+ GOLD RATING IS VERY RELIABLE AND EFFICIENT. I ALWAYS RECOMMEND EVGA FOR RELIABILITY AND SILENCE. THIS IS ONLY $65 AFTER $30 MIR AT NEWEGG: EVGA 750W GOLD. 4.7 RATING 1,100 REVIEWS ON AMAZON. YOU CAN GET THE 650W FOR $5 LESS. 850W FOR $10 MORE IF YOU PLAN ON SLI TWO POWER HUNGRY CARDS.
