PSU Advice

Hello,

I'm brand new to these forums, so hopefully I'm posting in the right place! I was just wondering if I could grab a little bit of assistance with what you think about the current pre-built rig that I'm thinking about purchasing. Here are the specs:

The reason I'm posting in this area is because it is high-end system and I'm not too sure if the 650W power supply would be adequate or not.

Anyone have thoughts on this?


Thanks a lot!

It will work fine but it is the only bit in that list that doesnt match the quality of the rest of the hardware
 
I don't know if the G1 is actually a superflower OEM I think it's the G2 please correct me if I am wrong here guy's. Let's not forget your PSU is the "heart and soul" of your system so getting a rated PSU would be essential for me "you wouldn't want one to fail and possibly take out all your other components with it". Have a look at the Corsair RMi or the Superflower leadex matey :)

Welcome to the forums :p

The G1s OEM isnt superflower, but I cant for the life of me remember who it is :lol:

OP do you plan on adding an additional 980ti in the future?

The PSU certinaly isnt the best quality and its voltage regulation is quite poor.
 
Thanks for all the responses, it is brilliant feedback, and for that I am extremely grateful! And thank you for welcoming me into a great community.

No; for what I need, I don't think I'll need any more than just one.

Thanks everyone!

You are most welcome matey we are all here to help each other ;)
 
Just for notice, EVGA G1 series has FSP platform and there are few reviews of G1 Rev.1 (NEX650G with metal bar on back) where it has minor problems with voltage regulation but it is good enough so it doesn't go beyond ATX specification in real life scenarios.

What I can't find is review of newer revision without that metal bar. I can say that platform is same or very similar to first revision (based on pictures and specification label) but maybe voltage regulation is better or rails starts from higher point so they don't finish on around 11.6 V but on 11.8 V during higher loads. Still I think that other components are of very good quality so their VRMs will 'iron' these imperfections.

The G2 would be a Superflower OEM matey
 
if i was you i would go for a EVGA P2 750w or a Corsair AX760/i or a Corsair RM750i
also helpful to have that bit of extra power.
 
No problems. :)

I believe he is looking this pre-built PCCG system. It looks nice but unfortunately it can't be modified, so he can't change PSU.

Now we have review of newer G1 version.

Unfortunately, they didn't improve that version. Platform is same, where voltage regulation is still bad under crossload and higher loads and they even replaced couple of Japanese capacitors with not very good CapXon capacitors.
