Question
Is ATI 6570 GDDR5 compatible with my PSU?



Here is my PSU: Galaxy 500 W model DLP-38A - 12v - 18A, 5V-28A, -12V-0.3A, 3.3V-27A, 5Vsb-2A

System:
Cpu: e5200 2.5ghz
Ram: 3gb kingstone ddr2
Hdd: 500 gb 7200rpm
Dvd drive: Lg thing
Mboard: gigabyte Ga-G31M-2SL (not sure)

Will my PSU run with those spec + ATI 6570 GDDR5?

OK, now your showing the +12V as having 38A, in your other thread, the way it was typed it only had 18A.

And why did you make this other thread, when you should of posted ALL of this info that was repeatedly asked in the first place?

Um, I don't know how I'm supposed to explain this when your the one seeing your PSU and typing in the wrong info on here for us to help with.

Your Info in this thread is this:

Galaxy 500 W model DLP-38A - 12v - 18A, 5V-28A, -12V-0.3A, 3.3V-27A, 5Vsb-2A

This is what You typed for the OTHER thread where we asked for this info in the first place.

GALAXY 500W - 12v - 18A, 5V-28A, -12V-0.3A, 3.3V-27A, 5Vsb-2A.

According to the original info posted it looked like it showed 18 Amps, the info in this thread you typed shows 38 Amps.

If the +12V Rail is really 38A strong then there should be plenty of power to run the 6570, assuming the Galaxy PSU is a good quality and reliable PSU.

OK, so the Model is DLP-38A?

if so, then NO the Power supply is not 38 Amp.


You have to realize its the way you are typing your info in that is confusing us here.


If the +12V is 18A, then you will need to replace your Power supply as was said in the other thread.


Can you take a picture of your Power supplies label (a clear and readable picture) and then post it to the thread, will make it much easier to help, and create less headaches.
