Only techies advice me PLZ!

I'm serious.

 

Don't get me wrong, I'm not advocating for that specific power supply. I am, however, suggesting that Seasonic is an excellent brand and that most power supplies are ridiculously over-spec'd. A Seasonic 550 should be all you need.

 

Cheers!

Alright guys,

Upgraded motherboard to ASrock Z77 Extreme and it got fixed ... It's running PCI-E 3.0

Completely agree.  Everyone goes crazy with powersupplies.  Mine is way overkill.  I measured my PC (excluding the LED monitor which doesn't take much) and running 3D Mark 2011 it peaked at 380W...  and I mean peaked absolute max 380W.  This was with my current overclock.
