Topic: What PSU is required for 1070? - page 2. (Read 1695 times)
I'm buying up all the 1700w psu in the EU, they are so freaking rare even a used one with a platinum rating goes for over 300 euros.
Thanks of lot i like it for sharing your knowledge. 
yeah a 1200 will do it, either supernova or corsair 1200 platinum are good, but you can also try to buy 1 rm1000i, will do good if you lower the tdp to 80%, and it's less expensive than the other 1200watt psu
If you mine ZEC, 1200W is enough.
Thanks for sharing knowledge 
But why only platinum? Gold is not ok? Or gold 1300w?
I have 2 options only:
1- GREEN GP1450B-OC+ Overclocking Evo 80Plus Platinum PSU (lower price)
2- Cooler Master V1200 Platinum (high price)
I was told GREEN PSUs are not good at high voltage usages, is that right?

Platinum or Titanium PSU's can handle a high load more efficiently than gold PSU's. If you are going to run more than 80% of the rated power, I would only go with a platinum or better PSU from a good brand like EVGA or Corsair. Platinum PSU's run cooler and the higher efficiency will also save you money in the long run.

1070 cards have a 150 watts TDP , so for 6 cards + your system need min 150wx6= 900 watts + around 100 watts for ur cpu/mobo/hdd/mem , so your total system draw going to be around 1000 watts , if you know how to overclock and the same time undervolt your cards you will be ok with 1200 watts psu . I would not use 1000watts psu for ur setup...
Building mining rig to about 80-85 percent of a PSU's capacity is advisable to achieve maximum efficiency and stability .

If he runs at 60% TDP he won't be using more than 800w, so a PSU 1000w would be fine.
Also with oc and modded bios
There is no BIOS mod for NVIDIA.
I second that, get a platinum 1200 watt psu.

My sys configuration is:
CPU: Celeron G3900
Motherboard: BIOSTAR TB250-BTC
RAM: 4GB DDR4
HDD: 60-80 GB

Hi,
I bought 6x"MSI GTX 1070 Gaming X Twin Frozr VI OC 8GB GDDR5". I want to know what PSU is required if I want to mod the bios for higher hashrate regardless of other hardware? Only GPU.
Is 1000-1200w ok only for GPUs?
