Using 2 PSU has CLoD kicking it in high gear!

I check the 550 PSU and it was working like it should.
And CLoD was doing fine with it.

after adding the 500 PSU is when CLoD got good.

The PC is faster and CLod preforms and looks better.

The things is you must adjust your video card settings for the power supply.

I see that there are some that don't post there PSU. That is where it all starts. The PSU.

I got curious. The distortion on the width of the videos are a product of youtube uploading mechanism or game config?

Well, not much.

Dell XPS 8000; that's ATX format but I know Dell make tight stuff so to be 100% sure check the dimensions of the old PSU before getting a new one.

Corsair just released a nice PSU - AX650 for 169 USD. It's modular, 80+ Gold, apparently silent and in ATX format.

Thanks for the prompt reply. I don't have CloD yet and got a little worried about the distortion. Good thing it is intentional and not the game engine.

That is interesting, I didn't even think the gpu would work without enough juice. I went with PC power&cooling and my 750w silencer has been chugging along 24/7 for at least two years now.

Performance with Cliffs of Dover is ok, but missions over London are a no-no.

If a new psu would provide a performance gain, I'd be happy to shell out on this first, rather than a card upgrade+psu, because of course if I upgrade my card, I'll definately need to change the psu.

Any advice?

Thanks!

dude you need to read this

5770 requires 500watt at the min. on a full load your 350 isnt enough for that card at all.

It is obviously a great wit, I've already done once with the old computers, but I do not think that by using two sources of food ganess performance in Flight Simulator, that I assure you, and less if they are of 500W and 550W respectively, if they were a good sources 1100w corsair or pulling some source cheaper but more w as the APEX NOX I'd say, "to your computer does not lack safe energy that is released with a lot of accessories but I doubt that you get you do more fluid game or Simulator this is responsible for the GPU not sources of food and as we all know the GPU have a minimum of consumption peaks and a few peaks of maximum so that with one single food source going sobrado provided that it is a good source..."Since generic fonts do not tend to give less than 70% of the real W...
