Enough Power? CX600W

Wulfy · 7 Sep 2012 at 20:27

So,

I've basically got my build sorted out and ready to order, except one niggling thought.

Asus Z77 Sabertooth Motherboard
EVGA GTX 670 FTW GPU
8GB Corsair Vengeance RAM
Intel I5 3570K

Just wondering if my CX600W Power supply will have enough juice and not bottleneck.

yep, plenty good enough

Yes enough, however would get a different PSU. The builder series aren't that well made.

I would get a new PSU the Corsair ones have cheap capacitors and are made cheaply.

have u bought it yet? as above its decent but there are better quality psu's

No I haven't bought it yet. Thanks for the swift responses.

Could you perhaps link a better quality PSU? Hopefully one that doesn't disagree with my wallet TOO much?

Thanks!.

I would get OCZ ZS they have good reviews on the web http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-055-OC&groupid=701&catid=123&subcat=

or spend extra for the 650W but you on't need it with that setup
