Question 1

Hello, I need to know if this Power Supply will work with the following system. I am looking for a simple yes or no/explanation.

AMD FX-8350 8 Core Processor
ATI Radeon 7850 2GB Graphics
Asus Micro ATX Motherboard
16Gb (2x 8Gb) 1600 DDR3 Ram
500 GB SSD and DVD-RW Drive
1 80mm, 1 92mm, and 1 120mm fan

I may add 2 SATA hard drives later for Raid 1, but I am unsure.

Will this work? I am concerned that there isn't enough power in each rail (especially the 12V rail) to keep my computer stable, if it would even run at all. Also, how much headroom is there with this config?

Thanks

Accepted Answer

Well this psu should run fine and I'm more than positive the 12v rail has enough power.

I have  the same processor and memory,but a much beefier GFX (7970 oc w/boost)

I'd recommend the psu also make sure your case can support it in width (from side cover to side cover)

TL;DR :  Yes it should work effectively.

Question 2

The label says 180w and the 12 v rail is 15 amps which is 12*15=180w which is total 360w. Is the 585W false advertising?

Accepted Answer

It is not false advertising, however if you are looking to use this for gaming or with newer Mother Boards you need to get a different supply as this one only has one four pin for the CPU while most modern boards require an 8 pin.  I also found this as insufficient for gaming purposes to supply video cards.

Question 3

Does this power supply actually have 2 12v rails for a total of 39A or not? If not, is it even 39A at all?

Accepted Answer

No, it's a single. To verify check the Specifications tab, about a third of the way down the page.

Question 4

Does it have four sata connectors like it says on the specs tab? Or 3 lke it says in the description? I have 3 sata hdds and 1 sata cd/dvd drive.

Accepted Answer

This particular model has four SATA power connectors. I unboxed one and did a head count just for you!

Question 5

Question 6

If this is an HEC way does the photo show an Orion?

Accepted Answer

aaaahhhhhh maybe they have a dba. Maybe there part of another company have you tried goggling it or is your internet blocked to neweggs site only?

Question 7

I am planning to use this PSU with MSI H81M-P33 motherboard. As per motherboard specs it needs:

1x 24-pin ATX main power connector
1x 4-pin ATX 12V power connector

I can see 24 pin ATX main power connector but I don't know if this PSU one has 4-pin ATX 12V power connector. Please let me know if this PSU would work with above mentioned MSI motherboard?

Accepted Answer

should work with all current motherboards. i looked at mine and it does have the 4pin connector.

Question 8

can this psu be used with a dell optiplex9010 MT?

Accepted Answer

It should work for you.

Question 9

Does this power supply have a 8 pin (or 2 x 4 pin) connector for the cpu?

Accepted Answer

4pin
