What is Reddit's opinion of EVGA 600 B1, 80+ BRONZE 600W, 3 Year Warranty, Includes FREE Power On Self Tester, Power Supply 100-B1-0600-KR?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Amazon price matched that Walmart deal so if anyone missed it, check it out! Also it's available on primenow meaning you can get it tomorrow! https://primenow.amazon.com/dp/B00EON40CS?qid=1494323845&m=AQCUSYIS91P2B&sr=1-0

edit: Amazon and Walmart are huge and it's good seeing walmart fight Amazon. In the end we all win.

The price ranges from 50-70 dollars btw. Remember putting it in my amazon cart when it was 54.99. So not really a sale tbh. Edit currently at 64.99$ on amazon https://www.amazon.ca/EVGA-BRONZE-Warranty-Tester-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1476969917&sr=8-1&keywords=600w

1. I dont think its worth it. You can squeeze higher clock speeds and maybe help stuff run a little faster. But IMO its not worth the price increase and time you will spend tinkering. Its just a hobby to some.

2. Aftermarket cooler isnt necessary. The benefits are that they are MUCH quieter and keep the processor MUCH cooler. The stock cooler is loud and only cools it to the minimum needed.

Do you have to buy at Amazon?

• RX 480 8gb (not 3gb) will be a better and cheaper card.
• The case is like half the price on newegg.
• Much cheaper Power Supply that will perform the same https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Warranty-Tester-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1487886799&sr=8-1&keywords=evga+600b

I have a 600B1. Here is the amazon link from when I purchased a while ago:

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EON40CS/

Is there much of a difference between a 5800X and a 5900X? BIOS updates are not too bad. I'm on rev. 51.

Any GPU thoughts?

Thanks for the input.

2 questions:

Will using PSU extension cables bring me any kind of problems? I've been using non-modular so far and it would suck if getting them only brought more issues like my system not booting up or something?

Does Cable compatibility matter that much? I was checking out the cable mod site and noticed most of the cable kits don't have one for B1.

For reference, this is my Power supply.

Note: I'm mostly looking for white extension cables for aesthetic purposes, if it's too much trouble or too expensive then I just might not bother.

Yep, it's this one here

My first thought was the PSU but it was even crashing in the middle of the night not doing anything (or very little). Also it never, ever crashed with my old card even under heavy load

I guess it's worth a try to get a new one before I send this card back. Any recommendations? Combing through PSU reviews is terrifying because it will be like 10 5-star reviews and then one "it started blowing smoke" review

EDIT: My local computer shop has Seasonic 750w FOCUS+ Gold PSUs on sale for 145cdn. What do you think?

You know, I didn't consider this at first, but it's possible that your PSU is failing to provide enough power to your GPU.

So before replacing your graphics card, try replacing the PSU. I'd recommend at least a ~500 watt PSU for that computer, if you got a 600 watt PSU it wouldn't hurt anything.

Edit: this 60) watt PSU seems pretty good for the money. I've seen several 500 watt PSUs for the same price, so I'd get this one instead.

And if it doesn't fix your problem, just return it :p

I bought a evga 600W Bronze a month ago, but the power cord is very flimsy. If i were to accidentally kick it a little, it would shift and end the whole power. This happened 3 times and I was wondering if anyone had the same problem and a fix. I am currently taping all of the cables to the wall so it would give me a little more leg room and hopefully no kick the cord again.

From a psu calculator, says load wattage is around 497w and a 547w psu is recommended.

Something like this psu should work fine, 600w would leave some room for extra hard drives and fans or whatever.

If you can. You might want to spend a little more on your power supply just for the sake of being able to upgrade or OC without having to buy a new one Edit: this is about the same price and it's a 600w

EVGA 600 B1, 80+ BRONZE 600W, 3 Year Warranty, Includes FREE Power On Self Tester, Power Supply 100-B1-0600-KR https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_l5PTzbGPTEVBJ

No prob, which exact graphics card are you using? (You said HD 5000, but there are many in this series, any numbers on the back, or on a sticker somewhere?)

On a quick look, for the price these are fairly decent: https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Warranty-Tester-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1502206869&sr=8-2&keywords=600+power+supply

The brand I have/currently use with a 3-year warranty. Though mine is a 725w and that is kinda overkill but hey more power is better right? Also got it on sale for 50 bucks

https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Warranty-Tester-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=pd_cp_147_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00EON40CS&pd_rd_r=6W05X1N4MCQ4GQDFR6N5&pd_rd_w=BsaJo&pd_rd_wg=JjScq&psc=1&refRID=6W05X1N4MCQ4GQDFR6N5

Hi I just bought the same PSU for 14 CAD at: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00EON40CS?m=ACBFZXOF4P6YM&ref_=v_sp_detail_page

I just ordered it now, does it sound legit? seems REALLLYYYY cheap to be legit :/ thoughts?

P.S. Would i be covered by amazon if something happens?

Well, I literally just got it so I don't think it's age. Here's the Amazon link for it. It's only bronze rated, but the reviews were almost completely positive, too. I haven't had this problem until today either, it's been working fine for the last 2 months.

According to Amazon that page does not exist

What about this one? EVGA 600 B1, 80+ BRONZE 600W, 3 Year Warranty, Includes FREE Power On Self Tester, Power Supply 100-B1-0600-KR https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_6zjUybHSW2PNM

Hey thanks for the reply. I have decided to cancel that PSU order since I've done some research just now and it doesn't look very good. What do you think about this evga 600B1? The reviews looks pretty decent.

Would this be alright then? https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Warranty-Tester-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1488213599&sr=1-2&keywords=evga+psu

More long term, adding an additional fan and possibly upgrading to a 1050 TI later on shouldn't be an issue either, right?

1. Maybe This

2. Its fine for majority of scenarios.

3. I'm pretty sure dual

4. As many as your case takes

5. You don't need an aftermarket cooler with a locked processor.

So a PSU like this one, which is the one I bought, wouldn't be optimized for this, but it works? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EON40CS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I am just trying to see how good of a pc I can build with a couple hundred bucks.

Huh -- I actually just grabbed one of the well-reviewed PSUs from PCPartPicker and assumed it was standard, but didn't realize there were much cheaper options with the same wattage. I doubt I'll be doing SLI any time soon and would rather save the money where possible right now.

Are there any downsides to something like this bronze 600W for half the price instead? I know that the bronze vs gold means it's less efficient, but I have a feeling the power savings aren't going to add up to $40 any time soon. Are there any performance or reliability concerns with the bronze PSUs vs gold?

Would there be any reason not to buy a power supply from overseas? Specifically EVGA 600 B1, purchased from US Amazon for myself in Australia?

They're all the same, right? The different household voltages between Aus/US won't matter?

If your budget for a PSU is $50, I would get a EVGA 600B https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Warranty-Tester-100-B1-0500-KR/dp/B00EON40CS?th=1 It's $50 as well, and while not modular, it offers more expansion options for the future and will most likely last you longer.

Thanks!

To follow up on that, is something like this EVGA 600w PSU sufficient to keep my computer up and running while I get my current PSU replaced via the warranty process?

If it doesn't fit do not force it. They change the shape of some of the pins to prevent you from messing up like that. If the PSU really doesnt have a connector that fits, I would get a different one. This one specifically is great.

No you have to have it plugged into the PSU. A decent PSU isn't all that expensive though. See this: https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Warranty-Tester-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1471722598&sr=8-1&keywords=evga+psu

Sadly the power supply that came with sucks. it's only 300w. I'm amusing that i'm going to upgrade to this PSU: https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Bronze-100-B1-0600-KR-Power-Supply/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_4?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1467845638&sr=1-4&keywords=evga+power+supply

I live in Venezuela and for now I just have $350, I will find more freelance work and buy the a 120gb and 2tb hdd with the next money that I get from my work, Im upgrading "slow" but secure

Edit: this psu right? https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Warranty-Tester-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1470524286&sr=8-1&keywords=EVGA+600B

I have this EVGA 600 b1 in my secondary gaming rig and it is only $40 brand new. Not modular though, if that is what you are looking for. (The 700W is only $55)

Definitely do not need a Z class motherboard for a locked CPU. You'll be paying money for too many features you wont be using.

Also, I see you removed it, but just to clarify, you won't need that 212 Evo CPU cooler if you aren't overclocking the CPU, either. (there are some caveats there, such as if the ambient air temperature of where you will have this computer is relatively high, or if airflow to the inside of your case is restricted, an aftermarket cooler might be smart. Otherwise the stock cooler the CPU comes with will be fine.)

That N200 case is meant to be real nice. I might have gotten it for the build I just finished if it were a bit more aesthetically attractive, but that's highly subjective. It's features/quality for price is good.

Your PSU is fine. Definitely go 80+ certified. You can save some money going for Bronze over Gold and staying with a standard design over modular. The N200 case offers some decent cable management so dealing with the attached bundle of cables from the PSU won't be too big of an issue. I got this one.

Intel i5 4690K 3.50 GHz. I don't think it is a power issue, because I had a power supply of 800W but a cheap one, so I decided to get something better so I bought a new power supply, this one https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Bronze-100-B1-0600-KR-Power-Supply/dp/B00EON40CS

It can happen while I watch a video on Youtube. I uninstalled something so I don't know if it will help. There was a flash player update for Windows 10 and to me it doesn't seem normal.

I don't believe that Microsoft should do that for me, I prefer to install them manually because I know what I put in my computer. When I install Windows 10 I noticed they put a Nvidia driver that people had lots of issues with it. So now I still don't know if it's my system or the OS... Keep trying I guess.

The PSU should have no issues handling the 480.

I don't exactly know the brand (A quick google seems to tell me that it's an "okish" brand), so you may want to consider grabbing a cheapish EVGA PSU Like this if you want to feel safer.

Edit: Put your specs into www.pcpartpicker.com to find out as well. The rumor is that a 480 is supposed to run around 50-60% of the power required for a 390.

Your PSU is one of the most important components not to skimp on. If your PSU goes bad, it can cause a lot of your other components to break.

This is the PSU I have been using for 1 year now with no problems, powering an i7 4770 and a GTX 970: http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Bronze-100-B1-0600-KR-Power-Supply/dp/B00EON40CS?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00

EDIT: It also comes with a 3 year warranty which is nice.

Would this EVGA 600B work? /u/GTAVbeastya suggested it, and it is $20.00 cheaper plus I get free shipping from Amazon Prime membership.

Just like to get a second opinion. :)

But wouldn't I need to remove the plate I encircled with green/yellow? Because that thing is literally in the middle of the case. And do you think this PSU would be good enough? http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Bronze-100-B1-0600-KR-Power-Supply/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1463344308&sr=8-1&keywords=PSU+600w

Looks like the 550w supernova is almost identical in price as the 650w supernova. Only option to cut pricing is something like this. But that's a different series.

i understand but if u got the cash do it oh and maybe for a 10 dollar save for 50 extra watts go http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Bronze-100-B1-0600-KR-Power-Supply/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=lp_1161760_1_4?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1459826175&sr=1-4, im rebuilding my old xps and im going the cheap route with G3258 and overclocking it

oh and go geforce gtx 970 if you thinking about vr but if that doesn't seem what you want just stay 960

They have sales on SSD's 240 gigs all the time, for $55. I would get that instead.

Power supply is a bit weak. EVGA 600 on Amazon $50 http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Bronze-100-B1-0600-KR-Power-Supply/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1459983696&sr=1-2&keywords=power+supply

Most higher end gaming cards, need more then 200 watts, and then you have to run everything else. You want to leave some headroom, you don't want to max out your power supply, higher chance it will fail faster. EVGA has a 3 year warranty as well. It's also Bronze.

That leaves you open to drop a most powerful card in, in a couple of years, without having to buy a new power supply for more power.

I wouldn't get anything under 550W for what you have listed. The three displays won't have much of an effect on the amount of power consumed. EVGA's 600B would be an ideal choice, especially considering the price point.

heh thats what I thought, thanks. And I did revert back to stock speeds before I posted this. Would this PSU be a good replacement? http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Continuous-Warranty-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Continuous-Warranty-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1457224318&sr=8-1-fkmr0&keywords=EVGA+650W+bronze this won is cheaper (like 60$ cheaper and has a very good quality) ps:it depends on your power supply ,what brand is it?is it certified bronze/gold/plat?or is it a cheap psu?

Yes, you can install that graphics card.

Yes, you could, but I'd prefer that you get a better quality power supply. One that isn't a fire starter. A power supply powers your whole computer - definitely don't cheap out on this component. I'd recommend this one if you're on a budget: http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Continuous-Warranty-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS . I've used it personally and it's quite solid. Reviewed decently on JonnyGuru.

Cleaning your computer with compressed air or a balloon pump probably won't help much, but a good cleanup can reduce the amount of noise since the fans don't have to work as hard dissipating heat from crud-infested heatsinks.

Yeah I didnt think about the 8gbx2 for ram and switching to this saved me $30 roughly. the 4590 is roughly within $15-20 as the 6500. I am certainly about saving money though! looking at the z/h97 boards that have the 4 rams slots the price is generally the same it seems, but I am just searching on amazon and maybe thats the downfall?

Will I save more money switching to an AMD cpu system? would it run just as well for what i want?

The only reason I consider water cooling is because of my location. Triple digits in the summer where I am at is a regular occurrence.

Would this power supply be compatible? http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Continuous-Warranty-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1454780608&sr=8-1&keywords=600watt+power+supply

Ah. good find. I was going based on the compatibility checker in PCpartpicker. It was in the list, so I figured it would be an easy accomodation.

Any suggestions on the power supply? I'm not a picky man, so if you say nothing I'd probably just pick up something like this for price, says it's 80+ Bronze, and should do what I need to do.

Thanks!

Edit: am a fucking idiot, my bad. Forgot you were using au dollar. Still, might want to check out an I5 depending on what you are doing and you also might want a 600w power supply for this Here is good 600w supply: http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Continuous-Warranty-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1453966708&sr=1-1&keywords=Evga+600w

Big negative on that power supply. This will be more trustworthy.

This is a decent power supply.

Yes, it's a group regulated power supply, but it should not go out of ATX specification if you crossload it, and it WILL supply 600W without blowing up. In the case that you do overload it, it will shut down properly and not kill your components. It's not semi-modular, but it's much better than the RaidMax power supply you were using.

It looks like it has a x16 slot and a 330w PSU now, so upgrading to this PSU should cover a 970 or less. As for the GPU, you can install any card that will physically fit, so I recommend you open your case and measure the length from the back of your case to the drive supports. If you could give me a hard limit for a PSU and GPU, I could give a better recommendation.

Hi! Thanks for your reply. I've heard that I should go with intel because of its higher single core performance but the i5 and i7 models seem really expensive. I know an i7 will always perform better than the 8350, but is there much of a difference between an i5 and 8350?

Also would something like this be ok for the PSU?

well shit i bought it yesterday and didn't research it first. I probably should have bought this one I don't even need 850w i just figured it would be good for future proofing. Live and learn i guess.

EDIT:i can still cancel whoop whoop

Would a GPU issue cause the entire thing to completely shut off?

Anyhow tech support suggested it was the PSU, I got a 600watt one (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EON40CS?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00)

We'll see what happens, if this doesn't fix it I'll get my GPU RMA'd.

Not likely, if I do it'll be a completely new build a few years down the road like >5 years.

This looks pretty good. Though it has Japanese capacitors which I've read arent as good as Taiwanese capacitors. Your opinions?

Would this PSU be a bit better? EVGA PSU And for cooling, what would you suggest?

Is this the same as 600 B1? If it is, I think amazon price matched. https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Warranty-Tester-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS

EVGA 600B from Amazon. Cheaper and typically recommended more over that CX model.

The EVGA 600b is currently $40 at Amazon and is a better pick than the CXM (though CXM isn't as bad as most people make it out to be).

But yeah, solid build.

yeah its this one

https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Warranty-Tester-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS

If you're worried about how things look, and your PSU isn't going to be covered, this is a good option... https://www.newegg.com/evga-550-b5-220-b5-0550-v1-550w/p/N82E16817438167

This is also a decent option.... https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-100-BR-0600-K1-Bronze-Power-Supply/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_1?crid=20ROQSW3Q49V&dchild=1&keywords=pc%2Bpower%2Bsupply&qid=1595335721&refinements=p_89%3ACorsair%7CEVGA%7CSeasonic&rnid=2528832011&s=electronics&sprefix=pc%2Bpower%2Caps%2C211&sr=1-1&th=1

I personally like EVGA and Seasonic. Those are the two I most commonly use in builds. That said, Corsair makes very reliable power supplies. The one above is a good option. You can also look in the EVGA BQ series, which are the semi modular PSU's. They have them on both Newegg and Amazon. If you MUST stay under $50, CoolerMaster makes some cheaper PSU's, but I cannot speak about their reliability. I've never hear of the brand you listed, so I'd personally stay away from them. And I always recommend to stay well away from anything used. Like I said, stay with 80 plus bronze ratings, in the EVGA, SeaSonic, Corsair brands. PSU's just aren't as cheap as they usually are right now, but don't let that steer you towards something that could potentially ruin your system.

I found out which PSU I have, it's the EVGA 600 B1 (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EON40CS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)

So given this PSU, do you think it's worth it for me to get the 2070S? Do you think it would work well with the 4790K for 1440p/144Hz?

How does this look?

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_HpB6BbAF08AF1

I also kinda wanna get a decent power supply because I think upgrading my cpu is my next step.

If I were to buy this PC on NewEgg would I need to upgrade the PSU or does it ship with a good one?

Yes, I know to go with building one. I've got my own! But there's a long story behind it that doesn't even involve the computer. I just want to know if the PSU it ships with would be good or if I should buy this to replace it.

https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Warranty-Tester-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1524883320&sr=8-1&keywords=evga+600w+bronze&dpID=51Zd5PuGxSL&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch

this is the one i have

Build looks decent. The 860 EVO is slightly better than 850 but the extra $30 isn't justifiable IMO but its your choice.

• Get 80+ bronze not 80+. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00EON40CS/?tag=pcp0f-20
• The G810 is $30 cheaper at best buy https://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/logitech-logitech-g810-orion-spectrum-rgb-mechanical-gaming-keyboard-920-007739/10409035.aspx
• I don't think you should ever spend $500 on a 1060 6GB.

There's a way to make building a PC even more viable and a tremendously better deal than buying a laptop.

PC: $315 Dell Optiplex with i7 2600 (4 cores 8 threads), 16GB of RAM, 500GB HDD, and Windows 7 (can be upgraded to Windows 10 using the Windows 7 key).

GPU: $368 GTX 1060 6GB Mini

PSU: $58 EVGA 600W B1

Total: $741

Boom! Laptops are no longer cost efficient anymore. This is even better than most prebuilt PCs (they usually skimp on ram and power supply quality). You could still add the LED keyboard and 240GB SSD if you wanted to (Total with keyboard and SSD: $833, still under budget).

Since you don't seem very picky, you can get this Dell Optiplex for $315 and pair it with a $585 GTX 1070 mini. You should also get an acceptable PSU like this $58 EVGA 600W 80+ Bronze, since the stock PSU doesn't have the required cables to power the GTX 1070 mini. This will get you the most bang for the buck and let you easily play those games you mentioned. I would also add a 250GB SSD if possible to clone the OS to.

Total, before taxes: $958

Yeah, in the bit of research I've been looking at, it looks like this might be a decent deal also?

Also, what about this power supply?

Personally, I don't know much about the motherboards, or really anything besides where the power button is. I'd rather deal with amazon than newegg but there's also a Microcenter close by me, so that's not awful. I am willing to wait until BF if anyone thinks the deals will be worth it.

Will this PSU work with this Motherboard ?

Oh whoops that's the last thing i copied. This is the right one.

Just tried the paperclip trick and the PSU didn't respond at all

I'll try a new PSU, thank you!!!

Edit: Amazon has this EVGA listed. Is this sufficient?

They have a slightly older model The 600 Watt B1, it's 80+ bronze certified, and only 48 dollars. Leaves room for future upgrades, and should last you quite a while as well. Or there is a slightly cheaper 500 watt W1, 80+ white certified. Either one would be a good unit, and price.

Johnny Guru's review of the 500b:http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story6&reid=351

>so these PSUs arent actually designed for any kind of gaming.

"Gaming" can mean anything from Minecraft or League of Legends to a demanding title like Witcher 3. You need to be more specific. My sister in law bought the $999 6600k/gtx 1070 PowerSpec system deal a few months ago that she uses for WoW raiding. This PSU is fine for gaming. I wouldn't use it to overclock at all, so it totally makes sense to use it in a prebuilt for customers who don't have the inclination to build, let alone overclock a PC.

If you're concerned with a prebuilt system's reliability buy the warranty. You can also swap the PSU out ( nothing special about working inside that case, it's a bog standard mid tower ) and still save money over building a system. I've priced out exactly what goes into these PowerSpec systems, and it's tough beating them on price alone.

This one is good comes with 3 year warranty too this the one i personally have

I actually thought I had a pretty decent one, it has 4 and half stars after over 2,000 reviews.

This powered my set up with room to spare with all of this stuff and the old mobo.

I don't know but you might consider this because 600w will be more reliable given your build. If you plan on overclocking you may even want to bump up to 700w+

Actually, my power supply is this:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EON40CS/?tag=pcpapi-20&th=1 The 1070 should be fine, right?

Id go with this to be safe. Especially if you plan to overclock CPU or GPU

get that instead

Sorry about that, referred to my old build by mistake. The cheapest I can find on ITX is ASRock H110-M ITX, at $28 cheaper than the Z170.

And yes, the EVGAB 600W is available for an additional $31. But, from what I understand though, it can get really tough to fit a full sized PSU in the CM Elite 110 M-ITX case if it is not modular/semi-modular. What do you think?

Go for higher than a 400 watt power supply, when you upgrade you'll thank me. I use this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EON40CS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Can purchase that tomorrow.

This

And

This

I would reccomend an EVGA Power Supply. They're known for their build quality and warranty. This is the one I'd specifically recommend for your build.

If you want to pay a little more, it may be nice to get a fully modular (meaning detachable cables) power supply. If you do, I recommend this one. I actually have this unit in my build right now and it's excellent!

What are your specs? If you really do need a 600w PSU then a 600B is $50 on Amazon.

EVGA 600 B1, 80+ BRONZE 600W

> Corsair CX600M

CX600M is 83€ here i won't go that far for this PC when i have a better one for myself.

https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Warranty-Tester-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS

Its that one?

Would this fit?

I have a comment about the GPU. I would highly recommend a EVGA gtx 1070. It looks great, runs quiet and cool. ACX 3.0 is a hell of a lot better than ACX 2.0 imo. Wait a second. I was about to say to go with the SC instead of the FTW because the performance gains are pretty minimal. The cards are the same price on amazon lol. The only downside I see to the FTW would be if you had a case with a window it can be harder to make the second power connector not look terrible if both your PCI power adapters are on the same wire like mine are. EVGA is great though. I got a 1070 SC and I can push a 90 mhz overclock all day. I'm not into overclocking at all, I've never touched the power offset on my 1070. The FTW is marketed more towards overclocking but I just don't think it going to be a whole lot better. The factory overclock (boost) is only 13 mhz higher. If you don't mind the second pci power connection go for it. They are the same price and the FTW has RGB. Your going to love your build. Have fun!

Okay, I looked through your parts and I think there are a few ways to save.

CPU: Microcenter, they have the i5 6500 for $20 less and I believe they will give you $20 off a compatible motherboard

SSD: Amazon my friend, I honestly cant tell the difference between two ssd's unless one is SATA and the other is PCIE or M.2. The Samsung 850's are overhyped I think

https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=500+gb+ssd&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3A500+gb+ssd

Power supply: I got a 600 watt bronze evga for like $50, I wouldn't even bother with gold certification, I got the bronze and it works fine. But like someone else commented you could probably get away with a 500 Watt. 600 is an awkward spot. At 600 Watts you have a lot of power for your rig, but not enough to go SLI. here it is $46:

https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Warranty-Tester-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1473099540&sr=8-1&keywords=600+w+evga+psu

Operating system: if your in school you can get it through your school, its a nice way to save.

And finally, the monitor: try ultrawide, 3440*1440 is a bit costly but you could always do 2560*1080 That AOC just seems a little expensive, I'd look around for one with a higher refresh rate

EVGA 600 Watt Bronze

Yeah I thought the keyboard was a bit of a waste tbh. My build is pretty similar to yours and I'm using a keyboard that came with an Inspiron my dad got like 6 years ago. It's not mechanical but I still do okay in CSGO

Also for the SSD look at this, this, or even this

As far as monitors go, do you know for sure what you want? Don't buy an ultra-wide or high refresh rate monitor that's twice as expensive as the one you picked out just because I mentioned it lol.

What is most important to you in the monitor? Resolution? I can look around for some 2560*1440 monitors

Also your Mobo looks good as far as I can tell

I would go with what Guillz said. But if you want to make your build cheaper you can change some parts.

I would get a cheap case (something below $50) like this

CPU: i5-6400

GPU: This is where you need to decide whether you will stay on 1080p (gtx 1060 or rx 480) for a while or go above 1440p (gtx 1070 or an AMD equivalent)

SSD: reliable brand w/ at least 120 or 240 gb of space

HDD: WD 1tb

PSU: This Seasonic, since you didn't spend alot on mobo and ram, you can opt for this psu. But if you still want to make it cheaper you can go with this

This is a good PSU it would be very unlikely to hurt your system anytime soon. For added protection use a surge protector and you will be set.

PSU: https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Warranty-Tester-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1471634458&sr=8-1&keywords=evga+psu

Unless you are going for a small build stick with an ATX motherboard. Look at the "Form factor" specification on the motherboard and the case. Both should say ATX or mini-ITX or micro ATX etc... Then look for what the case says about the power supply. Most cases will fit a normal sized PSU. Unless you have multiple Titans a PSU like this will be good enough: https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-BRONZE-Warranty-Tester-100-B1-0600-KR/dp/B00EON40CS/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1471729463&sr=1-1&keywords=evga+power+supply If you want something a little nicer and fully modular you can get this one:https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperNOVA-Power-Supply-220-G2-0750-XR/dp/B00IKDETOW/ref=sr_1_3?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1471729463&sr=1-3&keywords=evga+power+supply

Is this one good? EVGA 600B Bronze 100-B1-0600-KR 600w

Is this one good? EVGA 600B Bronze 100-B1-0600-KR 600w

In that case, I'd go with an i7-6700 paired with an RX 480 (once the 480 is back in stock). I'd make a change to the power supply though and go with the EVGA 600B. That puts you almost perfectly at $700, throw in a nice 24" monitor, Windows 10 at $86. That leaves you $90 for an extra HDD, a nice set of speakers, whatever you wish. You'll need a case, but in the MicroATX range you shouldn't have trouble finding one that appeals to you for $30-40.

With regards to performance, this should run GTA V on high to very high settings, may need some configuring, at 1080p and 60Hz. It's a bit GPU beefy, but that should let you turn up some other settings and probably improve load times a bit.

600B is decent. It might not be the last word in power supply design but it has all the essentials and 3 years of warranty.

Would you recommend sticking with that MoBo and getting the 6600K (would I be able to overclock anything at all? I got not fans or dediated cooling) or just take a H110, H170M??

Here's the updated build:

nvm, turns out i have to get this power supply. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EON40CS/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=AQ2KNWSHKTD2T

It is good but I'd want to change the PSU. I'd suggest EVGA 600W 80+ Bronze or EVGA 750W 80+ Bronze (full modular) . I heard that the CX series is bad for both overclocking and not overclocking. Also 500W is not enough if you want to overclock.

Yea I explored some more and found I was really going to need an upgrade. Picked up a new one.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EON40CS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This PSU with this build?

Yes it should, that's what I have. Though if it's a cheap 600W then it can gives you some issues. I have this one right now https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Bronze-100-B1-0600-KR-Power-Supply/dp/B00EON40CS

I had bad experience with a TV, so for now on I will always stick with PC monitors, way more better. If the resolution is not the same then you will see blackness. For example I tried two TV's they were 720p, if my resolution in Windows wasn't 1366 x 768 then I couldn't see anything no matter what I tried. If your game your are playing isn't the same resolution either, it will be black too.

It's still worth a shot, it could be a driver issue, maybe there's a malware or errors in Windows that makes your driver crash.

To me I would say it's your TV that cause those issues, if it was the power supply's fault you would have seen weird colors on your screen and maybe artifacts.

600 watt version for 40 bucks

I was recently tasked with building a computer for my father, and ran into some amazing deals on newegg through November/December. The new mobo we ordered that came with a great combo deal won't fit into my dad's new case, which is fine since I can just move it into mine...

Long story short, I've got the whole computer put together but it won't output any video.

I'm working with my old Intel DH87RL desktop board and it was working just fine in my old computer a day ago. It's now hooked up to a new EVGA 600B power supply, with HyperX Fury 8GB DDR3 RAM. Processor is an i5-4690k. A small 120 GB SSD is also hooked up, and my old EVGA 760 GTX is ready to get plugged in once I get everything else working.

I've unplugged everything and put everything back together, still no video. I've moved the RAM around and I do get the 3 beep memory error when it is in slot 1. I had this same issue with my old setup, but was able to work around it with using slots 3 and 4. The fact that I can get the 3 beep error makes it seem like everything is setup correctly, so I'm not quite sure what else to do. The fans are all running and everything seems to be working, but there is no video output or bios screen. The monitor stays in power save mode with both displayport and hdmi from the integrated graphics. The monitor works with my computer, so I know it isn't the monitor. Any suggestions?

EDIT: Came across this in the manual: >The enhanced standby power LED is lit when the board has +5 V standby voltage applied to it. It also blinks as soon as the BIOS has started executing code, once the power button has been pressed and before video has been initialized.

Which is the case atm(standby is blinking), and still no video output. :(

the CX series isn't meant for gaming rigs

Output is only one variable to consider. The current needs to be clean and consistent. If you're using a cheap PSU with bad internal components you won't get that and possibly screw up other parts of your computer. People make the mistake of budgeting too low for their PSU and end up with a build that won't even turn on.

This one has good reviews and is well within your budget.

So does this one. But personally I wouldn't use less than a 600W PSU. I'm using this one for a home media server and in my girlfriend's rig and haven't had any problems, but it is $5 over your budget.

Hm.. There will be about a meter (3 feet) inside the case, and 6 feet outside the case; along my desk; i don't see how this could burn. I received a EVGA 600B power supply; would that do ? www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EON40CS?keywords=600B

Don't go cheap on the PSU. Get something like:

EVGA B1 600W Bronze

or spend a bit more and get the good stuff:

EVGA G1 650W Gold

Ah, this bit. Yeah that's just a cable, this is a power supply.

The cable is actually pretty cheap and generic. Chances are your TV, monitor, some game consoles, and other electronics use the same cable. If you feel desperate or want to press your luck, you can swipe one from something else.

As Python also said, this is a good solid PSU, 600 watts continuous, 80+ Bronze efficiency, 3 year warranty from EVGA, and it's only $55 from Amazon.

Not sure why the list price is $100 before sales, but I see no difference between what you're given there and this

In reality it's only $10 off.

Edit: I'm dumb!

I have to say I'm quite alarmed / bothered at that statement. I bought This very recently after looking at rankings on some mega PSU chart somewhere on reddit.

Sure it's not a $100+ PSU, but it has great reviews and I currently use it's 2x4pin plugs for my GTI 660TI.

I also bought a 1070 and don't expect any problems.

Why would this PSU be rated so highly if it doesn't even have a GPU power cable?

i changed the psu to a 600w currently on sale for 40 bucks just to be safe. the cpu(i5 6500) is very good as well. my build was really cheap cause i bought them all during blackfriday. normally its 700$+
