Corsair 750CXM builder for i7 Haswell and 560Ti SLi?

[aik6980]

Is it a good choice for me to use Corsair 750CXM builder for i7 4770k Haswell (OC) and 560Ti 2x SLi?
the system will probably have an SSD and 1-2 more SATA HDDs

I wonder if I could save a few more and go for 650W instead as well?

Many thanks

750W is right on the boarder line I believe.. provided that your CPU will be overclocked and 560Ti SLI, I think a bit of headroom would be ideal, like around 850W range.

I've put in your spec in our PSU finder and this is the list that came up.

That review shows a system with an i7-965 and two GTX 560 Tis in SLI, and they drew 449W at the wall. Which is perfectly fine for a 750W PSU, in fact if the quality is high enough then 550W is enough, although few 550W PSUs have four PCIe connectors.

What is your budget for PSU? I looked earlier at units between £50 and £70 (based on that being the cheapest price I could find the CX750M) and couldn't see too many things which were obviously better. Forget about 850W units for less than £70.

thank you very much, guys!

75 quids is pretty as much as I wanna spend on the PSU
hopefully I can find a decent 700-750w Semi-Modular/Modular (if that is possible)

That's the thing though: personally given the choice a modular PSU and a non-modular PSU with a fixed price point I would probably always go for the non-modular PSU since it will always mean better quality. Yes, it's nice not to have cable clutter but not if that means compromising on the quality of the electronics.
