PSU Rails and distribution?

Rubi Romo: shame on Coolermaster if they didn't mark them.BUT, i'll bet if U carefully read the label u will find it.

Truman Biby: It is hard to find out which rail is which. Don't worry too much, just do a stress test with both CPU and GPU at the same time. If its shutting down, then its either overloaded or overheating.Normally the CPU power cable is on a separate rail so it does not share the rail with the GPU power cables / HDD power cables.Your PS is kind of overkill. A system like that would draw less than 400W.When gaming, that is OK, because the power supply would be using approximately 45% of its capacity.When IDLE, the power supply will be very inefficient. (50-150W, around 10-20%)With power supplies, there is a huge increase in efficiency when its using 40 - 60% of the capacity....Show more
