In view of the XPS 8700 with GTX 970 upgrade, what would be the necessary power supply / & will fit in the case?

To anyone who has successfully upgraded their diet to accommodate a more power hungry GPUS, what EXACT PSU did you purchase and how much was easy to install? Links to sites of sale would be great.

Thank you.

Personally, I bought a power supply Corsair CX600M it was 150mm, so it should fit in your case.

  • 3 monitors on XPS 8700 with AMD Radeon HD 270 R9

    Hello world

    Just a quick question. Can I conduct 3 monitors to a XPS 8700 with the AMD Radeon HD R9 270 card?

    I read somewhere that it supports Eyefinity, and in the marketing of the images I see 3 ports on the video card. an hdmi and a DVI and a VGA. Eyefinity normally uses an active displayport adapter. You don't know everything just not if I'll be able to use all 3 ports to control monitors. Or maybe use 2 ports from the dedicated card and the onboard port.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    I've never tested, but in theory, it should work.

    Yes, it's an mSATA SSD and scalable. You have the option to install the OS on a bigger mSATA SSD if you choose to do.

  • XPS 8500, GeForce GTX 970, power supply upgrades

    Alright Hey guys, so I did a little research, talked to a few friends and others and came to the conclusion that the upgrade of my gpu will be a good call! in any case after talking to a few people and a few computer experts I have been proposed to upgrade my gpu for a gtx 970 which I think will be great! The other question that I fell or not was the power supply will be able to handle this kind of upgrade. So after through suggestions from some other people and see what others who have improved their xps 8500 I suggested me to go with the power of 750W EVGA supernova 750 B 1 did supply (PSU) (110-B1-0750-VR) the reason behind this was expressly that he was quite a bit smaller in length to the tern I would be able to ride in the tour and that's what other people have used when starting to level of their xps 8500. Anyway sorry this is long but I assure you it is a good idea, if everything fits correctly and any other thank you GENERALS!

    EVGA is a brand, and they have power supplies are built by different manufacturers.

    the key is the letters B1 and G1, G2 or GS

    B1/G1 are built by the FSP (OK, but not great)

    Seasonic GS. (but not the best that Seasonic can build)

    Superflower G2 (and it's getting good reviews.

    the best is the G2.

    The G2 will be good, but be very tight.

    Keep in mind that you need not 750W to add a GTX 970. 550 W of the kind of clean energy is ample. 650w is also good, but I would highly recommend a high quality PSU, and I do not include the B1 or G1 in this category.

    The 8500 and the 8700 are PSU even better I can tell and there are several described in this thread.

    JCGood1984, welcome to the forum.

    The computer should take a standard ATX power supply unit (PSU).  I suggest to measure the existing PSU and compare measures in the links.  If the measurements are the same, it should fit.  I don't know anything about the brand, however.

  • The 460W power supply will be sufficient for the GTX 1070?

    Just place an order for a R5 with an i7, GTX 1070 and a diet of 460W.

    I'm not going for the largest power supply, because I'm not a fan and do not upgrade components.  If the configuration of Dell said 460 page might work, I saw that he needed to upgrade the PSU. I preferred using the extra $100 for the video card rather than the 970-1070.

    Now, reading around forums, I continue to see comments that the recommended food for a GTX 1070 is 600 Watts (by guru3d.com).

    I still have time to cancel the order because it is very recent.  Do I need to worry about this power supply?  How would I know if it is not sufficient for use?  The frame rate would be low, or the stability of the system would show signs?

    Hello

    Yes, the 460W will work well if is unique. Check the image below and let me know if you need anything else:

    Information on the cliff:

    GTX 960 - good without a new power supply

    GTX 970 - many debates on a PSU update if it is required or not. Just update.

    GTX 980 - fits in some cases cut and an upgrade of the PSU, but gets hot. consider a case upgrade.

    980ti GTX - even as the reason 980 and more for a new case that breathes better.

    I would avoid the high-end AMD cards in the case of stocks due to heat issues.

    And, you can easily sell your 750ti on eBay.

  • Replacement 760ti GTX with GTX 970 in an R2 of Alienware X 51?

    Just did a little research, and from what I can tell the reference GTX 970 and 760ti share the same exact dimensions in length and depth; and use less power at idle and supported; and it gives off less heat.

    Does anyone know if there will be complications with my GTX with a GTX 970 760ti replacement?

    Hello

    So, I also want to put an EVGA gtx 970 in my 51 r2 x. The new alienware x 51 r2s, even with the power supply 330 watts, being supplied with gtx 960s. These require a minimum of 400w, but alienware are themselves uncomfortable with selling them with the new x51s. So I think a 970 should work okay, if you have the 330w PSU. I read a lot of testimony that the x 51 r2s supports the 970 s and same years 980, but I don't want you may have a 980. So I guess I'm torn between 960 and 970

  • Rendering with GTX 970 SLI or Crossfire 390 R9 or simple GTX 980Ti

    Hello.

    I used Photoshop and Illustrator for years and just getting into Premiere Pro for video editing.

    I'm from 1080 p videos and moving at 4 K later this year

    It will be mainly 3-10 min edited footage toy comments or openings.

    I read about things OpenGL and Cuda and don't know if I've got 100%.

    What would be my best option in terms of performance in the editing and rendering at the end.

    I read that first pro are now supported OpenGL and support Multi GPU. Does this mean that 390 R9 with 8 GB of each will give me the best results since the first might be able to use the 16 GB of Vram altogether?

    This is what I have so far in terms of hardware (I already bought so I'm stuck with these, with the exception of GPU)

  • Adding a new power supply will void the warranty

    Hello

    I would like to replace the power supply 350w comes with the HP Pavilion p6-2378.  I have a 500w I'd replace it with.  Will this void my warranty?  This is the standard of 1 year.  I do that so that I can put a secondary graphics (AMD Radeon 4650 [assuming there is enough electricity to 500w?]) and take advantage of the GPU power and additional outputs. Then, would it be making void my warranty?

    Thank you

    Upgrade your PC with approved HP and parts supplied will not void your warranty.

    However, if you upgrade your PC with parts that are not approved HP and HP determines that the changes caused failure HP is not required to honor the warranty.

    Some PC outside the United States are delivered with seals and if broken the warranty is voided.  I have yet to see the seals on the PC of American consumers.

    Thanks Geekster,

    I'll open the case and take a look, is there other traps known with HP systems and case I must be wary of?

    T.

    T, no, none that are scary, at least.  Case of small, medium, make sure you do some interesting cable management situations.  Nothing that can't be overcome quite easily, however.  Always try to keep good air circulation in the case.  Can avoid you heat caused outages.

    Good luck!

    740 GT is not much faster that the Radeon 5570 then this isn't much of an upgrade. What do you who needs 4 GB of RAM - V?

    Have you watched a 4 GB GTX 750 ti? Much faster...

    If you go with a GT 740, according to me, he can use less energy than the 5570, and if you buy a 'green' BluRay burner, it can use less energy than your current optical drive.
