Is a CoolerMaster GX Lite 600w PSU capable of running a decent mid to high gaming pc with a decent videocard?


If not that i would want to get something like the Silencer MK III or a Cooler Master GX550 Power Supply 550W. I know the Silencer MK III is out of stock and preorder only. If it wasn't i would have snapped it up at that great price.


I have been up all night just looking for a decent power supply and i just can't seem to pick one. It seems like the power supply is a really awkward choice to pick these days for a new build.

I would go with a 700 watt PSU if I were you to be future proof.

Yeah. I think I might end up getting the coolermaster GX Lite 700 watt PSU. The only drawback is it isn't modular and there's no sleeves around the cables.

I'm also not sure how well it would work with a high spec gpu if i ever wanted an upgrade.
 
I use Johnyguru and some other sites to check professional reviews on PSU's.

Also 550W is more than enough for any graphics card and each generation uses less power than their previous. 700w is only needed for dual gpu systems.

I would reccomend a 550w seasonic personally.
