I had bought a GS500 psu 2 months earlier but was having some problems...
so i gave it for RMA .......today they said that they will provide for a 600GS since 500GS stock in unavailable
Now,
my system is
1. i53570k
2. Pz77- V Pro
with 6 chassis fans (3 -200 mm,3 -140 mm)
3. 3Nos 5400rpm HDD
4. 1Nos Opt Drive
will buy later
1. 660 ti / 670 / or something similar AMD alternative , Later with 2-3 months
2. SSD

WILL NOT SLI/CROSSFIRE


so i wanted to know that weather 600GS will suffice or should i sell it and go for something like TX850 v2/TX750 v2
P.S. The PSU calculator linked in the forum is showing 505 W usage.....

suggest plz.....

I would avoid the GS and get a TX V2. Make sure you're getting a V2 since they've refreshed the models again. The 750/850 look overkill. A 650W should be enough.
P.s.: What issues were you having with the GS500?

I will probably get the GS 600 coz of RMA.......since the GS500 is OOS.......
the PSU was shutting down after running 4 .........5-6 hrs.....

Yes. I'm having a problem with the same model as well. Is it just bad?

My GS500 just gave up on me. Turning my computer on caused sparks to fly and the house's mains to trip.
