You could probably get by with a 750W or 850W PSU (perhaps even 600W, but I wouldn't go that low), depending on your other components and your thoughts on clock speed. Count up the connectors carefully, and you might need to use one or more molex (preferred) or SATA to PCIe adapters, depending on what power connection(s) your risers accept.


Look at the underlying OEM before making a purchase. No-name generic PSUs should generally be avoided.

Can you suggest me some psu via ebay or amazon?
I order risers and also i got h81 pro btc 2.0 motherboard

I got this risers

650W PSU is enough. My rig has 6 x 1060 with 850W PSU. I usually set power limit at 80%, so basically each GPU draws about 100W.

[jillscarbrough]

1060 has a TDP of 120 Watt if the math count is 4x120 = 480 Watt. Power required 480 Watts. To be more secure buy 750 W or 850 W, to keep the other parts so as not to lack power. it's good to buy a voltmeter tool like kill a watt meter.

Can someone suggest me which model (CM,EVGA etc) 750 or 850 PSU to buy?

I have the EVGA SuperNOVA G3 750w, been working perfectly, https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperNOVA-Modular-Warranty-220-G3-0750-X1/dp/B005BE058W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1516837195&sr=8-1&keywords=evga+supernova+g3+750w

The shipping is expensive and customs.
In my country i find this deals for good money, but i need someone to tell me which one is  good.
1) Cooler Master MasterWatt 750W, 80Plus Bronze, Fan type: LDB fan, Active PFC, EU Cable, Efficiency: 85% Typically, Connectors: M/B 20+4
2) PSU 750W Gigabyte G750H Real Power, 80 PlusGold, Modular, Silent, 14cm Fan, Fan Speed Control, Black
3) PSU Cooler Master G750M
and one is 700W but evga (PSU 700W EVGA 700B 80+ Bronze 100-B1-0700-K2, 120mm Sleeve Bearing fan, Includes FREE Power On Self Tester, +12V Rail Rating 56A, OVP (Over Voltage Protection), UVP (Under Voltage Protection), OCP)

Because i have trouble with my account i want to know anyone can help me which psu to choose?

[matthewy159]

I order 4x msi 1060 3gb so tell me what psu i should buy for them?

So currently im squeezing 95 watts on my zotac 1060 mini. So I reckon 500 watt should be pushing it but obviously you can expand more cards at a later stage getting a bigger psu.
So if your board only accepts 4 cards, then you can get those PCI-E extenders which extends your PCI-E cards from 1 port to 4 ports XD.
I want to try one of those things at a later stage instead of having to buy new PSU ect...

So to buy that for 4x1060 gpus? 3gb?

Corsair RM850i is sure to hold your rig of 4x 1060 3GB without any problems. It is one of the best brands in PSU-s and has 4 PCIE 6+2 pins needed for 4 cards that you will connect. Of course is more expensive but well worth the price based on the quality it offers.

In fact this is a bit overkill for you as it has 6 PCIE 6+2 pins but in case you want to add another card in the future, this PSU can hold up 5 cards without any problem.

If you will go with only 4 cards go with Corsair RM750i

I order risers and also i got h81 pro btc 2.0 motherboard

Soon enough you will get more GPUs, and should take that into consideration, i.e. I would suggest to get PSU which will be able handle 6x GPU. I am currently running 7x 1060 3gb with 750W PSU. Because I am using powerlimit of 75W for each of the cards the PSU is able to handle it. But:
1. the set up is not definately recommended due to lack of risk marginals
2. I need to powerlimit the GPUs, even if I could gain more with no powerlimit

morale of the story: Don't go cheap with PSU

So do you think, using a PCI-E power cable extender, you could power 2x 1060 3GB using one PCI-E power cable that splits? And then use a 4-pin molex chain to power two risers?

I know each card pulls about 105W for my setup.

http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/graphics-card-power-supply-balance,review-33071-6.html

This says about 300W per cable.

The problem is that in my country there is corsair but only 1000wats, so i give the list which cpu's are avaible in my country.
I found only corsair rm750x ?

That would be a great choice too and I think it is cheaper. The version with "i" in the end it means it is fully modular, I guess the x version is only semi or not modular at all. But for what you need it ,still it is perfect.

ok but what is different between this  PSU 750W Gigabyte G750H Real Power, 80 PlusGold, Modular, Silent, 14cm Fan, Fan Speed Control, Black and rm750x?

This are the differences between Rmi vs RM, and RMX is one step bellow RM

Why you can buy this one you mentioned. I hope you can utilize the 750 watts smps alone to have for 3 GB nvidia 1060 cards. You can get the power cables also 4 numbers in the box package itself. PCIe cards will can be able to buy with the separate package alone.
You know some of the cards would not work in the every 10 number of PCIe packs.

I cant find Corsair psu because they said they dont have a product.
So can you tell is gygabite good?

Sure why not, neither Corsair or Gigabyte doesn't make their PSU all by themselves anyway.
Just take into account warranty, number of PCIe connectors and their length, also calculate that you have enough spare power so you don't torture your psu 24/7 on more than 70% of max power it can give you.

How much PCI-e plugs your cards have?

You are buying 4 cards, do they have only 1 PCIE plug for additional power or 2 plugs?
PSU on your list have 2 cables with 2 pcie connector so you have 4 PCIE plugs available without additional slots on PSU available.

If your cards have only 1 PCIE plug for additional power you should be good.

[ETNPro]

The each card have one slot for power, and risers also have power so?
But i didnt found gigabyte psu because its not avaible
There is only this shit: RIOTORO Onyx SM 750W by Coolermaster (probably idk)

Not sure If i personally would go for that brand of PSU.
You have enough options from Corsair, EVGA, Thermaltake, Seasonic and few others that people have been using successfully during the years.
Take a look at some reviews from sites that have been testing PSU-u during the last 5 years for example JonnyGuru, Tomshardware and some other sites. I am sure you would find at least one model that has been well reviewed and is available to you for purchase.

You are speaking about the power cables which can be connected from the SMPS to the graphic cards buddy. Those cables only have the two diagonal point jacks in the one points and the other end will be on the SMPS with the single point. In PCIe card, you can find the SATA cable line and power cable to SMPS again. This cable have to connect on 1 to 12 watts point which can be find the middle row of SMPS.

I have a setup similar to yours (6 x 1060) and I am in love with this unit I use, I recommended it:

I am talking about how much cables he gets in the package he is buying, and regarding to that what he can expect to connect out of the box without any converters from molex to 6pin plugs to power the cards.
I am trying to make it simple as I can because I know that our friend expects simple answer.
Not sure if your answer would be beneficial to him at all at his point of knowledge.

I will buy that psu but tell me one thing big for me, whats the name of the cable that have 8pins jack and i need to connect 4 risers to that cabble? SATA Power of risers. And how much pins i need to have in the psu for 4 gpu + risers?
