Why not save some money and get a GTX560Ti and a smaller 650W (cheaper) PSU brand new.  Maybe even a GTX570.  Unless you know for sure you are going to go SLI down the road you can save a lot of money by purchasing a more affordable yet very capable card and a lower wattage yet sufficiently powerful PSU....just a thought.

What is wrong with you, a 650w PSU is like putting a 4 cinder motor in a full size truck just ante going to work!

That was a good one, I'm laughing and now caughing. haha That's how I think towards getting a Jeep Wrangler, hell with getting a 4 Cyclinder. My SUV and Car are 8 Cyclinders. :D

It's true I had a 750w in my rig & let say it didn't work out very well with what's in my rig!

What do you have now?
That's what I'm thinking, I don't want to go small and end up screwing my self over and having problems, whether it's now or down the road. Better safe than sorry.
 
You want a gas saver and something good with power. You get a 4 Cyclinder Jeep Wrangler, lift it and what not, your going to hurt your gas milage (and other stuff) so bad your better off with a V8 swap. Going with an 6 Cyclinder will be better and it can pull it's weight.

Same here! When I first read the title, I thought another person was mad and was threatening to leave. With the exception of WildDog, who always comes back like a boomerang.    :)

5thduke & XrayMan - I guess that's understandable and I can do that, just for you guys. ;) haha I didn't think you can change it. What should I change it to? Because I'm curious if my computer is a good buy or not. Same with the video card, if I should get it or not, but we cleared that up. Instead it turned into a Video Card and Power Supply thread.

I got this one but for $150 even & it works better than the 750w I had!  http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817171049

How about  "Should I buy or not?"       ;)

seabigbear - You must of gotten a good deal on it huh? Why did you go with that brand?
 
XrayMan - I was going to, but I already bought my computer and the video card, well is a no good. So now what? :D
 
5thduke - Actually a few mods I was messaging told me to post it here, because I was going to post it in "Price Check", but I realized that was meant for something else. Why would people leave on "Good Buy?" It's okay, you can be cold hearted, everyone is in title to their opinion. :D

XrayMan - Hey I wasn't saying he didn't have a good warm heart, but are you implying you don't? :D
 
5thduke - Thank you! I like it here, gives me something else to do with my Winter Boredem. Unless I get a Jeep Wrangler and than I'll be busy Snowboarding and off roading. :D
Can I actually change the title? I'm thinking "Good Purchase?"
 
seabigbear - Do you like that better than the HX850?
That's what I usually do, search all over to get a better price. Along with a bunch of other things too.

XrayMan - Heck yes, I'm proud of my self now, even though it should of happened sooner. ;)
 
5thduke - What can I say, I'm just good at it. Actually started cracking up laughing to your post, it was priceless.
If it makes you feel any better, since I'm on my old computer, it takes awhile for it to load. haha
 
seabigbear - OH YEAH! That's how GT usually is, I must say I was a little shakey after being told to post this thread here. :D
