How about this PSU?

[DEATH]

My 580 arrived today and I cant install the 580 - doesnt have all the pins I need.

Found this on the net - Viotek 850 Watt Modular Power Supply - SLI / Crossfire Ready, 6 SATA, PCI Express 6+2 Pin, EPS12V at 3B Tech - Buy computer parts, notebooks, desktops, & home electronics 850w

1200w PSU -http://www.ebay.com/itm/1200-watts-power-supply-omega-/140623257596?pt=PCA_UPS&hash=item20bdcc9ffc

Question is What should I get?!?

I wouldn't be buying an 850w PSU for a high end system that costs $70-... Using the adapter will work but the question is what is your current PSU - Your OC cpu and a 580, I would be looking at a minimum 750w + Psu (good quality). For example this 850w...

If you're looking at 850-XFX has one (made by seasonic) and there's a LEPA (made by enermax) that are solid and reliable.

Newegg.com - XFX Core Edition PRO850W (P1-850S-NLB9) 850W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Certified CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC Power Supply

Newegg.com - LEPA B850-MA 850W ATX12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Modular Active PFC Power Supply

Or just get the Seasonic for $5.00 more

Newegg.com - Seasonic SS-850HT 850W ATX12V v2.31,EPS12V v2.92 80Plus Silver Certified, Active PFC Power Supply - Power Supplies

These aren't modular, but they are reliable and at a good price.

Or if you want a really good PSU with more power at $149 there is always the PC Power & Cooling, they make their own and are also very reliable and quiet-but not modular.

Newegg.com - PC Power and Cooling Silencer Mk II 950W High Performance 80PLUS Silver SLI CrossFire ready Power Supply

Or better yet Corsair 850W TX for $109 http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-CMPSU-850TX-850-Watt-Certified-compatible/dp/B001M3G42W/ref=sr_1_31?ie=UTF8&qid=1319067576&sr=8-31

Don't fuck around with getting a cheap PSU-it goes and so could your system. What costs more, paying a little more for a quality PSU or having to pay for a whole new system?

Here's a good one. Ball's and I have the same one. No problems. He run's his alot harder then I do though. Plus in the long run you'll always have enough

Or better yet Corsair 850W TX for $109 Amazon.com: Corsair CMPSU-850TX 850-Watt TX Series 80 Plus Certified Power Supply compatible with Intel Core i7 and Core i5: Electronics

I've been running that one for over 2 years now with zero issues. i7 920 OC'ed to 4.0GHz and two GTX 560 Ti's in SLI. It will definitely do the job and that's about $40 less than what I payed..

 

[sixer9682]

Yeah, those Corsair TX series PSUs rock. I has a 750TX that I oc'd to 4.0ghz my I7920 and rand my 5870 on with zero problems.

Thanks for the great links - Eurphuct saved me time + money for the time being - I used some adapters and converted the 2 pci-e 6 pins to a 8 pin connecter - and found another adapter I had laying around that converted the 2 HDD power connecters I had left to a 6 pin connecter - booted up - downloaded drivers - and Im playing Crysis 2 with Dx 11 patch - and its beautiful.

For now this will have to do - I can wait to OC my GPU - the bitch gets loud while gaming - so im going to look into Water Cooling - + im going to save for a new mobo + another 580.
