GTX670 with a 700W PSU?

Brink said:

Hello Major,

The GTX670 requires a minimum of a 500 W PSU as per the specs below, but it also depends on what the rest of your hardware requires in addition.

If you like, the PSU calculator below will help you determine if your 700 W PSU will be enough for your system. You'll just fill out what you have, and it will calculate a needed wattage. :)

Cooler Master Power Supply Calculator

Hey Brink,

I used the calculator, as you said.
It's pretty weird.
It says my minimun power supply should be 390W.

My specs are shown in my profile if you'de like to check

I think it should support the GTX670. I just forgot how it's calculated via rail amperage.
Also giving the fact that my current GTX460 runs only on 20W lower than the GTX670 requires, I think it should be fine.

Thanks.

MajorG could you post a site that shows your exact power supply?

No sir,

I can't find it anywhere. FSP seems to change their product names or stopped making these type of PSU's.

All I can find, from a nativ website is this:

Manufacturer Fsp
Power 700W
Active PFC
Power Output: 700 watts
Fan: 120mm
Connections: + 3.3V
+ 5V
+ 12V1
+ 12V2
+ 12V3
+ 12V4
-12V
+ 5Vsb
PFC: Active
Efficiency: 80+ BRONZE

And as I said. 4 12V+ rails with rates of 18A each.

This must be the one FSP POWER_MOD 700 Watt Modular Power Supply

Nope.
Mine is white with a white sticker and is classified as 80+ unlike this one.

Anything in particular you need to know about my PSU? It's all written on the sticker.
Unless you look for benchmarks or real life performance, there I can't really help.

Well just to let you know according to these guys your PSU is of good quality from this group they have a knack for slapping OCZ and Antec labels on them so you know they have to be good

Dont know about the PSU you linked, but I actually read only bad things about FSP and their PSU's .
