    Default PSU Help


    Can you help me choose the best yet affordable PSU for my PC? I just upgraded my VGA from Sparkle 9400GT 1GB to Gigabyte GTX 560 Ti and I can observe a red light on my mobo. I have read that it has something to do with my PSU though i'm already aware that this kind of problem might arise soon.

    Here's my specs

    Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz
    (4pcs) 2 GB DDR3-1333 DDR3
    Western 320GB SATA HDD
    Intel BLK DX58SO Motherboard
    Gigabyte GeForce GTX 560 Ti
    Samsung CDDVDW SH-S223C ATA Device
    Gigabyte SUPERB 550W PSU

    Is this good enough?
    Thermaltake GRAND 80+ GOLD 750w - Power Supplies - Components
    or I can have cheaper than that?

    Is it also normal that my electric bill would increase because I changed my VGA?

    Few days ago I think. I'm not sure what specific light haven't opened the unit yet, I can just see it from the outside.

    pila diay budget mo?
    I actually don't have budget for this, I just feel the need of changing the PSU so the cheapest possible.

    I just upgraded my VGA from Sparkle 9400GT 1GB to Gigabyte GTX 560 Ti and from around 2k bill it jumped to 3k.

    It is a red blinking light that usually shows up if I am running lots of apps like games + 2 FB Accounts with flash games. Then if I close or lessen the apps it will stop blinking.

    I am already suspecting the PSU because the VGA alone requires 550W.
