I was considering buying a corsair tx650
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139020
,but I want to make sure that I'd be able to add just about any one video card to my system.I do not intend to sli or crossfire.I'd just like to know that I'd be able to add even the highest grade enthusiast cards like the gtx 590/690 or radeon 7970 or their new 8 series cards,without any issues.I do not intend to add water cooling but I will have an aftermarket cooler soon.here are the components it needs to power.
i5 2500k 3.7ghz(stock cooler)
8gb ram
biostar tz77a mobo
zalman z11 plus case fans
hitchi deskstar 320gb HDD
LG dvd drive
I do plan to overclock it to 4ghz+ if that matter at all.I realize with the current setup a 300 watt could easily power it,but like I said I'd like no stability issues,whatsoever.I recently purchased a thermaltake tr2 500 watt and it caused instability issues.like I said before Id'd like to be able to add even the most power hungry cards.so is the psu enough?If not what suggestions do you have?I have a max of $95 to spend on the psu,not a penny more.I've been told that this power supply could handle 2 gtx 560's in sli,or a single enthusiast card,stably,I'd like it if you could confirm or deny this.I most likely will want to add a HDD,again,without it causing any power issues.sorry if any part of this was rude I'm just frustrated that the psu I purchased earlier wasn't sufficient,and thank you for reading.
also I've heard that this psu can be loud,is i just a defect with some of them?or do they all have this issue?
