what watt do I need?

[gandyuk1002]

Hi guys so I found some standard components for my first build and I was wondering if the watt would be enough. My watt size is 600.

 

My first pc spec build:

 

Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro rev 2

 

Crucial 4GB DDR3 1600MHz Ballistix Sport VLP x2

 

Gigabyte GTX 650 4GB GDDR5 VGA Dual DVI HDMI PCI-E Graphics Card - 400 watt

 

MSI B85M-G43 Socket 1150

 

Crucial MX100 128GB

WD 1TB Blue Desktop Drive

Samsung SH-224DB 24X Internal DVD Writer with SATA - OEM

 

CIT Gold 600W Fully Wired Efficient Power Supply - I will change only for the watt size

 

Titanium 500 ATX PC Gaming Case

 

Intel Core i3 4130

 

TP-Link 300mbps Wireless N Pci Express Adapter

 

 

Please note that I am happy with this spec as I don't want to changing about it but only the power used

 

Thank you.

600 watt is much more then what you need, but it's a matter of how many watts your PSU can actually put out. Considering it only has a single 6 pin PCIe power connector, not 600 watts.

That's just what the sticker says. What's in the power supply is likely a whole different story.

Again, that doesn't state anything useful. There's a lot more to a PSU then the generic specs. When looking for a PSU, you'll want a reputable one with high quality components. Good caps, line filtering, voltage regulation, and ripple are things that you'll want to be looking for.

oh right thanks

oh right thanks

Also, the company that actually makes the PSU is very important (not the brand name of the PSU). High quality PSU OEMs like Seasonic, Super Flower, Delta, and Flextronics are recommended.
