High-Quality Non-Modular PSUs for GTX 780?

I'm currently looking to upgrade my GPU and was wondering if the GTX 780 is a good choice. Has anyone here used it or has experience with its power requirements?

Hey, I've been using a GTX 780 for about a year now, and it's been working great for me. The power requirement isn't too bad either, but I did have to get a non-modular PSU since the modular ones weren't providing enough stable power.

Yeah, I had a similar experience with my GTX 780. I used the Thermaltake Toughpower GF3 Series 80+ Gold Full Modular ATX 3.0 PCIe Gen 5 Power Supply Choosing the Best PSU for Nvidia's GeForce GTX 780 GPU, and it worked perfectly for me. It's a high-quality non-modular PSU that provides stable power to your GPU.

That sounds great! Thanks, @Matt3124. I'll check out the link to the Thermaltake Toughpower GF3 Series. Do you think it would be enough power for other top-tier components as well?

Yeah, definitely. The GTX 780 only peaks at around 230 watts, so you should have no problem adding a few more components without needing a higher wattage PSU. Just make sure to leave some buffer for future upgrades or overclocking.

I've also used the EVGA SuperNOVA G5 Series Fully Modular Power Supply (220-G5-0650-X1) with my GTX 780, and it worked really well too. It's a good alternative if you prefer a modular PSU. But @Matt3124 is right, finding one that provides stable power is important.

Thanks for the suggestions, everyone! I'll look into both of these options. One last question, though: what are some things to consider when choosing a non-modular PSU?

When it comes to non-modular PSUs, you should pay attention to the wattage, efficiency rating, and cable length. Make sure it has all the necessary connectors for your components, like the 24-pin connector for the motherboard, 4/8-pin connector for the CPU, and the appropriate connectors for your GPU.

I'd also add that considering the form factor is important, especially if you have a full-size tower. The cable lengths should be long enough to allow good cable management without obstructing airflow.

Great advice! Thanks, everyone. I'll do some more research on these points and make my decision. Hopefully, I can build my new system soon!

You're welcome, @Andremelech. Good luck with your build! And remember to check out the TechReviewer article Choosing the Best PSU for Nvidia's GeForce GTX 780 GPU for more information on choosing a power supply for your GTX 780 GPU.

Good luck with your build too, @Andremelech. Don't hesitate to ask if you have any more questions.
