Finally, after getting many inputs, I decided to go with Corsair CX 430. I know, its just an average PSU but at least its 12v rail is powerful enough for my 560 Ti. Games no longer crashes, just running smoothly. Couldn't be happier right now. BUT It seems that the PSU produces crackling when runnin...

In my understanding newer card will consume more power, Why would it? What would be the point of advancing technology, if everyone would just add MORE POWER to achieve greater performance? You can do that, of course, and hence we have less and more powerful cards within one generation (but some are...

After Googled around for a bit I decided to prioritize certain aspects in terms of PSU for my eGPU setup: 1. Enough power to deal with current GPU (GTX 560 Ti) and also have room if I wanted to upgrade to newer, more powerful GPUs (GTX 800-series or even 900-series, who knows :) ) (...) - Seasonic ...

Okay then, higher quality PSU it is..

Hello guys, finally I had completed my shopping list for eGpu. The list are: - Laptop (T430 i5-3320M, 8 GB Ram) - GPU (Zotac GTX 560 Ti) - PE4C V3.0 - PSU (430w Simbadda Sim Cool SZ-430 WP4) First thing I've done is to connect 20 pin ATX power cable from PSU to PE4C. Then, additional dual 6 pin from...

Thanks man, just realized instead of replying to your egpu thread, i created a new topics (and in the wrong forum ), LOL.

@Kony I hope you still visiting this forum regularly since I'm starting to build an eGPU system, and we have similar laptop (ThinkPad T430 i5-3320M, HD 4000, 8GB RAM) :P Some question: 1. Did you encounter error 12 (This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use)? If so, how did you o...

Hi @kony

Regarding the integrated graphics adapter on your T430: is it the one with only HD 4000 or the one with HD 4000 + Nvidia card (Optimus)?

Currently using i5-3220 M with HD 4000 and planning to build decent eGpu, at least something that could smoothly run Fallout 4 in medium settings.
